Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been linked with Real Madrid since he started scoring goals at Borussia Dortmund.
When Kylian Mbappé’s signing was uncertain, his name often appeared in the Madrid media, but this time the concern in England comes from comments directly from the person concerned’s mouth. Pep Guardiola has already dismissed speculation about Haaland, saying only that he was not surprised that Spanish newspapers knew more than him. He also insisted that Haaland has a clause in his contract that would facilitate his move to the Spanish capital, allowing him to leave for a fee closer to €100m than €200m .
Haaland said the following about her future, as published by The Mirror. “ I am very happy, especially with the people around me. The manager, the directors, the board, it’s an extraordinary group of people and I’m very happy, I have to say.”
Haaland with Mbappé at Real?
“ If I say this now, it will probably make headlines, but you never know what the future will bring. But I’m happy. You can write that, but you also have to write down everything I said before. I am happy“.
The feeling in Madrid is that sooner or later Haaland will want to test himself in Spain, and Real Madrid are the only club that can afford him as things stand. The prospect of uniting Haaland and Kylian Mbappé is certainly worrying for the Merengue rivals…
