Real Madrid will ‘back off’ from Erling Haaland pursuit on one condition and more Man City transfer rumours

Real Madrid will not pursue Erling Haaland if they sign emerging Brazilian talent Endrick, according to reports.

As soon as the Norway striker landed at Manchester City, reports emerged that Madrid were spying a potential bid when a supposed release clause becomes active in 2024. The player’s agent has remained coy about the potential contract caveat but it now seems as though the La Liga champions may call off a pursuit.
