Real Madrid are reportedly considering pulling out of the race to sign Erling Haaland as Manchester City close in on a deal.
Haaland’s future is one of the biggest talking points in European football ahead of the transfer window. The Norway international looks set to leave Borussia Dortmund, with his release clause able to be triggered this summer.
Some of the continent’s biggest sides have been linked with the 21-year-old superstar, including City, Real, Barcelona and Bayern Munich. The Blues look to be leading the race, with reports this week suggesting they've already agreed a deal to make Haaland the Premier League’s highest-paid player.
