Erling Haaland, Barça's priority for next summer
Erling Haaland's departure from Borussia Dortmund next summer is almost complete.
It remains to be seen now what will be his next destination.
If Real Madrid is regularly mentioned, FC Barcelona is far from having said its last word.
According to the revelations published by
Sport
this Thursday, the Catalan club would have made the recruitment of the Norwegian striker its priority for the next off-season.
In order to be able to accommodate the 21-year-old center-forward, the Blaugrana have already begun to prepare economically: the drop in its wage bill, for example, goes in this direction.
In order to secure its services, the FCB could also count on the signing of new sponsorship contracts and on the departure of several players such as Sergi Roberto, Memphis Depay or Luuk de Jong.
Mino Raiola, the player's representative, would have explained to the Barcelona leaders that his protege would be particularly sensitive to the sports project when making a decision about his future.
Choice which should take place at the end of March or the beginning of April,
after the indiscretions of the Spanish sports daily.
According to various rumours, Erling Haaland could leave Borussia Dortmund for a check for €75 million;
i.e. the amount of his release clause which can be activated from 2022.
