Amadou Haidara says playing for Manchester United is his biggest dream

Apparently, RB Leipzig's Amadou Haidara has a soft spot for Manchester United.
RB Leipzig's Amadou Haidara has revealed he dreams of playing for Manchester United in the future.

When asked what his biggest dream is, the midfielder told Sport Bild:

"I like Manchester United very much and watch as many of their games as possible. I dream of playing there someday. But at the moment, I'm very satisfied at RB Leipzig. Our big goal is to qualify for the Champions League."

Since joining 'Die Roten Bullen' from Red Bull Salzburg in January, Haidara has been likened to the former RB Leipzig player Naby Keita who now plays for Liverpool. But the 21-year-old isn't too pleased with the comparison.

"The only thing we have in common is that we both play with number 8. Otherwise, we aren't similar in any way. Naby is a great player. He has taken his path, and I'll take mine. I don't think comparisons with him are fair, because we're not comparable," he said.

Haidara has made seven appearances for RB Leipzig with one goal and one assist to his name.
