Erling Haaland backed to avoid ‘weird’ Man City decision amid release clause reports

A former Manchester City player has predicted that new signing Erling Haaland will stay at the Etihad for more than two years, despite rumours of a £120m release clause becoming active in 2024.

The striker has not long landed in Manchester upon his £51m move from Borussia Dortmund, but several reports already have speculated about a potential exit. They claim that the apparent contract clause can be triggered after two seasons, with Real Madrid said to be interested.

They missed out on Kylian Mbappe, who signed a gigantic new deal at Paris Saint-Germain towards the end of the season. It means Los Blancos have had to redraw their short-term and long-term transfer plans, with Haaland reportedly on their mind.
