Unlike Mbappe's non-Real Madrid not going, Haaland has yet to make a final decision on his future. Now that the negotiations have reached a critical juncture, Haaland's team will soon make a decision.
Manchester City's offer for Haaland is currently the most lucrative, Real Madrid are still in the competition and consider matching Manchester City's offer, while Barca are basically out. Real Madrid president Florentino is about to meet with Dortmund CEO Vátsk to discuss Haaland's transfer. The meeting will take place shortly, in Madrid, where Florentino will talk to Vátsk about a Haaland deal, and while City may have some advantage in the battle for players, Real Madrid do not want to give up.
Real Madrid are interested in signing Dortmund striker Haaland this summer, which could cost a total of 350 million euros. If Real Madrid sign Haaland, some of the current players in the squad may have to leave the team, including Hazard, Jovic and Ceballos, but it is not easy to sell them, especially Hazard. Mbappe and Haaland have been linked to Real Madrid, and recently it was pointed out that Real Madrid president Florentino dreamed of signing Haaland and Mbappe this summer. Optimistically just a dream, Haaland and Mbappe can eat a total annual salary transfer fee of more than 500 million, and this is likely to break the salary balance, Real Madrid should still put their energy on Mbappe.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that City are already ahead of Haaland in the battle, and if Haaland eventually moves to Manchester City, he is expected to become the highest paid player in the Premier League. City are willing to offer the Norwegian striker a £500,000 a weekly salary and City believe the deal can be finalised in the coming month. Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid and other teams are also paying attention to Haaland, but Manchester City are confident of winning the Haaland battle.
Borussia Dortmund adviser Summerle confirmed on Tuesday that City were pursuing the player and that he was surprised by the high level of offer they sent, believing that Haaland's transfer to Manchester City was possible. No matter how Real Madrid president Florentino meets with Borussia Dortmund CEO Vátsk, they are already behind in this Haaland competition.
