Red Bull Salzburg sporting director Christoph Freund predicts that prolific Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland will join Liverpool in the future.

Red Bull Salzburg sporting director Christoph Freund has said that he expects Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland to "land" at Liverpool one day.

The Norway international has scored 24 goals in 27 appearances for Dortmund since joining from Salzburg in January.

Haaland's form has seen him touted as a target for Europe's biggest clubs, with Real Madrid widely considered to be the frontrunners to sign him next summer.

However, Salzburg chief Freund has suggested that Liverpool may be a more likely destination for the 20-year-old.

Replying to Lothar Matthaus, who name-dropped Haaland during an interview, Freund replied: "He will land there."

Freund added to Sky90: "He can play for any club in the world. With his mentality, his will and self confidence, he will be able to make a mark on European football in the next ten years."

Haaland has four years to run on his contract with Dortmund, although he is believed to have a £67.5m release clause that will kick in from January 2022.
