Bad news for Premier League sides… Erling Haaland is reportedly keen on moving to Real Madrid when he eventually leaves Borussia Dortmund.
Haaland’s extraordinary goal-scoring exploits for Dortmund at such a young age have made him one of the most coveted footballers on the planet. There’s scarcely a club among Europe’s elite that haven’t been linked with a move for the Norwegian.
As has been well-established, Haaland has a relatively affordable release clause in his Dortmund deal that is thought to kick into place come the summer of 2022. That will likely spark a transfer frenzy, with all of football’s household names involved.
Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool have all been mentioned as potential suitors, but according to a report by Goal, they all have an uphill task convincing Haaland to snub a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
So the report claims, Real Madrid is Haaland’s dream move and he will be pursuing a transfer to Los Blancos above all others. Ultimately, money talks, but Florentino Perez also has enough at his disposal to compete with the state-run clubs in Europe.
Where do you think Haaland will end up?
