Scorer again against Crystal Palace after a slight period of shortage, Erling Haaland (23 years old) continues to have a good time for Manchester City and remains top scorer in the Premier League with 19 goals. Still in the running to retain the title of English champion but also that of European champion in the Champions League, the Norwegian striker will challenge Real Madrid this Tuesday, in the quarter-finals. A club that he will not forget for his future.
Rarely present in front of the media, the 23-year-old striker recently spoke about his future at a press conference: “you never know what the future holds for us tomorrow but I'm happy. You can write this but you also have to write everything I said before. I am happy”. Under contract with the Cityzens until 2027, Erling Haaland could quickly receive a contract extension from Manchester City, according to A.S..
Real Madrid remains on the lookout
The Spanish media explains that the Cityzens would like to avoid seeing a very dangerous new contract clause which would come into force from next June. A clause worth 250 million euros to snatch it and which will decrease from year to year. This clause, negotiated by Rafaela Pimenta's clan, allowed him to have a way out if he was unable to reach an agreement to extend.
While the arrival of Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid has put a damper on the idea of Erling Haaland joining the Merengues in the short term, Rafaela Pimenta wants to continue to maintain the same clause which allows him to leave for a lower sum of money in order to realize his dream of one day playing for Real Madrid. But for now, Manchester City have the final say and are expected to begin negotiations with the Norwegian star in earnest after the end of the current season.
