Erling Haaland will join Real Madrid by 2029 because of the Manchester City striker’s enduring “love” for the club, so says long-serving Borussia Dortmund executive Hans-Joachim Watzke, who worked with Haaland during a formative period of his career.
Haaland has been among the best No. 9s in the world since his breakout with Red Bull Salzburg in 2019, followed by increasingly high-profile transfers to Dortmund (2020) and City (2022).
