Haaland at Barça, the thunderous announcement!

FC Barcelona has started discussions with Erling Haaland’s clan with a view to the arrival of the Norwegian striker this summer.

What if next season the Clasicos between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona were marked by a duel at the top between Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland? While the Frenchman is heading straight for the White House after refusing to extend his lease at Paris Saint-Germain, the Catalans are reportedly trying to land the Norwegian.

According to information disclosed this Thursday by Jijantes FC, supporting video, the sporting director of the Blaugrana, Deco, spoke in a luxurious restaurant in Barcelona with Rafaela Pimenta and Maxwell, the representatives of Erling Haaland. On the agenda: the future of the Scandinavian serial scorer.

Does Barça have the means?

It must be said that Erling Haaland has, according to several sources, a release clause which will be active this summer and estimated at just over 100 million euros for foreign clubs. A significant sum but well below the real value of the player today.

However, the file promises to be extremely complicated for FC Barcelona. Beyond the difficulty of convincing the former BvB to leave Manchester City to join Catalonia, the financial health of the Blaugrana is not in good shape. As a reminder, Haaland is linked to the Citizens until June 2027.
