Former Swansea City forward Michu has revealed details of a conversation he had with Borussia Dortmund sensation Erling Haaland regarding his future.
The striker has been linked with a number of European football's biggest outfits, including Premier League pair Liverpool and Manchester City.
At 21 years old, Haaland is already one of the best goalscorers on the planet and a reported £68million release clause that becomes active in the summer is unlikely to put off potential suitors for his signature.
As of yet, it's unclear where the forward's long-term future lies, although it would appear he has shared some insight with Michu, who was one of the striker's footballing heroes as a youngster.

"I was with Haaland, I had a conversation with him and I think he is not going to continue at Dortmund," Michu told Cadena Ser via Mundo Deportivo (h/t the Mirror ).
"Haaland is looking for a very strong team that can compete in the Champions League. He is looking for a competitive team.
"He gave me the feeling that he was looking for a sports project for many years and he told me that he liked Spain. If [Kylian] Mbappe goes to Madrid, I think Barca would be a very good option."
Michu is the sporting director at Spanish second-tier outfit Burgos and in 2020 he shared an image on social media of a signed shirt he had received from Haaland.
With Mbappe's contract up at Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season and the Dortmund tyro almost certain to leave Dortmund, arguably the two best young forwards on the planet appear set to be on the move this summer.
While Liverpool have been linked with both, manager Jurgen Klopp is already blessed with a wealth of attacking options and added to them in January with the acquisition of Luis Diaz from Porto.
