Erling Haaland has swiftly established himself as one of football’s most sought-after superstars but a worrying trend has emerged this season that may dictate his future.
In January, the Norwegian striker claimed that Borussia Dortmund were pushing him into making a decision on his future amid speculation that he may be on the move this summer. Manchester City are reported to be among the frontrunners for his signature but Manchester United have also been linked with the superstar.
Barcelona in December held a meeting with the player's agent Mino Raiola while Dortmund recently confirmed that Real Madrid are among those who are interested in signing the Norwegian. The Norwegian fuelled speculation of a transfer to La Liga in January as he confirmed that he would like to play in Spain during his career. Barca president Joan Laporta's reported confidence in signing the striker has sparked off what has been described as a 'war' between the club and El Clasico rivals Madrid.
