Juventus send scouts to watch Red Bull Salzburg's Erling Haaland?

Juventus have reportedly taken the opportunity to assess Erling Haaland against Italian opposition.

The young Norwegian has established himself as one of the most highly-regarded prospects in European football having made an impression in this season's Champions League.

As well as the likes of Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona, Juventus have been heavily linked with an approach for the 19-year-old.

According to Calciomercato, the Serie A champions had scouts present as Haaland represented Red Bull Salzburg against Napoli.

Haaland got on the scoresheet as his side earned a 1-1 draw in Naples, which kept Salzburg in the running to earn a spot in the last 16.

The frontman has already stated that he plans to see out the remainder of the campaign with the Austrian outfit.
