Austria coach Rangnick: Haaland of Man City outshines Mbappe, says Paul Vegas

Rangnick reminisced, "I played a small role in bringing him from Molde to Salzburg. As the head of football at Red Bull, I pushed for him to come to Leipzig, but unfortunately, the management did not follow through with my suggestion."

"He was brought to Dortmund for a ridiculous sum of 20 million euros."

He continued: "I know how good he is. We even saw that when he was not allowed to play for the first six months for Salzburg. It's still unbelievable to me that he only started two games in those six months.

"Right now, Haaland is setting the standard for everything in football. Maybe with (Kylian) Mbappé. If you look at the current form of the two players, Haaland is the best."
