Should a Manchester United fan rock up at the Borussia Dortmund training ground and sing Mariah Carey's hit festive track, 'All I want for Christmas is You', there's only man they'd be singing it in the direction of; Erling Haaland.
The Norwegian's exit from Dortmund has been teased for several months now and with Ralf Rangnick at the helm, a figure he knows well from his days at Red Bull Salzburg, United's dreams of signing him could become a reality.
Indeed, it's thought that the club's interim boss has even had conversations with Haaland's father about a potential transfer to Old Trafford in 2022.
The Red Devils may have Cristiano Ronaldo in their ranks, but perhaps the finest present this winter could be Dortmund's star striker.
He is a colossal figure in the game and is so perfect at every aspect of the game that he feels like he was made in a laboratory.
Haaland has remarkable pace and upper body strength, can head the ball and leap like a salmon, while his finishing ability is simply devastating.
It's no surprise, therefore, that he was dubbed a "goal-scoring cyborg" by reporter Alex Truica.
Further acclaim has come from one of United's nemesis down the years in Thierry Henry who described the 21-year-old as "lethal."
That's an easy word to label the £135m-rated forward who has found the net with ridiculous regularity in recent years.
Since signing for the Bundesliga club, he has scored 76 times in just 75 outings, with 19 of those strikes coming this term.
On that evidence, staking a case for him improving the United side is an easy one to make.
Nurtured at Salzburg, he already knows the pressing philosophy and thus, he could be absolutely perfect for Rangnick this January as he aims to put his stamp on the Manchester club's playing style.
For instance, Haaland has recorded 35 successful pressures of the ball in 2021/22, a tally that betters every attacking player at Old Trafford. In terms of forwards in their squad, Mason Greenwood (31) and Jadon Sancho (30) are the best.
With that in mind, not only would the Norway international bring a bigger goal threat to the northwest but he'd also help Rangnick implement his gegenpress.
Therefore, signing him this winter would be the perfect late Christmas present for United supporters around the globe.
