Ex-Liverpool legend and current pundit Steve Nicol believes goalscoring sensation Erling Braut Haaland will move to whichever team is dominating over the coming years.
The Norwegian hitman, 19, has experienced a truly remarkable campaign in 2019-20.
His 28 goals in just 22 appearances for Red Bull Salzburg prior to Christmas put the football world on notice.
A further 12 strikes in 11 appearances came after his winter window switch to Borussia Dortmund, and the English-born centre-forward once again found the net today as the Bundesliga made it’s return after the coronavirus-related hiatus.
His attacking exploits have understandably drawn the attentions of Europe’s heavy hitters, with Man Utd expected to go back in for the man they almost signed in January once again.
But it is Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool who Nicol believes has the upper hand due to them being a more attractive proposition given their recent successes.
“In five years time we don’t know who is going to be top of the tree,” Nicol told ESPN FC (via the Daily Express).
“Whoever it is, that’s the move for him because what he has shown us up until now is he looks like the real deal.
“He is like the heir to the throne of the best forward in the world and that means you play for the best team.
