Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will reportedly meet with transfer chiefs John Murtough and Darren Fletcher this week to discuss summer transfer targets.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will reportedly sit down with Manchester United's hierarchy this week to discuss the club's transfer plans.

United named John Murtough and Darren Fletcher as football director and technical director respectively last week as part of a behind-the-scenes overhaul.

Despite the new appointments, Solskjaer has stated that he will still have a say in any incoming and outgoing activity ahead of next season.

According to The Sun, talks are scheduled between the Norwegian, Murtough and Fletcher this week, with summer transfer targets at the top of the agenda.

United are said to have highlighted four positions that need strengthening - centre-forward, central midfield, central defence and a back-up goalkeeper, with one of David de Gea or Dean Henderson on their way out.

Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland, whom Solskjaer previously worked with at Molde, is rumoured to be the Red Devils' top target.
