Manchester united will regret missing out on the signing of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland, according to club legend Paul Scholes. 

The Red devils were thought to be close to completed a deal to sign the highly rated Norway international in the January transfer window to bolster their attack. 

Manchester united manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had worked with Haaland during his spell in charge of Molde before the teenager moved to RB Salzburg. However, Haaland opted to complete a move to Borussia Dortmund rather than Manchester united in the January transfer window in the next step in his blossoming career. 

Reports at the time suggested that a potential ideal was scuppered due to problems between Haaland's agent Mino Raiola and the Manchester united board as well as some of the striker's demands. 

Former Manchester united mid-fielder Scholes reckons that the red devils will end up regretting the fact that they couldn't get a deal for the prolific Norway striker over the line. 

But then, once the German football came back and I watched him properly, I thought why did Manchester united not just pay whatever anybody wanted for him? He looks that good, he's still young, and he's an out-and-out goal scorer. He's quick as well, and he's got real pace.
