Real Madrid Transfers: Ranking the 5 most likely teams to sign Erling Haaland
1. MANCHESTER CITY
Last season’s Premier League champions Manchester City, were on the lookout for a striker all summer long after bidding farewell to their all-time top scorer, Sergio Aguero. The Citizens were closely linked with Erling Haaland and Harry Kane but were more focused on the Englishman over the Norwegian since BVB made it clear they had no intentions of selling Haaland.
Meanwhile, reports from England have it that Manchester City have already lined up a 100 million pound move for the 21-year-old in January itself. Pep Guardiola wants a striker for his system and it looks like City could well truly sign Haaland in the winter transfer market.
There’s no denying that the Sky Blues are one of the most financially powerful clubs in the world but apart from their resources, Manchester City has the power to offer a strong sporting project as well.
City under Guardiola have transformed into an unstoppable force and Erling Haaland would certainly want to experience playing under one of the world’s best managers.
The experience of playing in the Premier League is also another factor why City are favourites. On top of that, they also have a star-studded team that can cater chance after chance for Haaland to bury with Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish.
Pep Guardiola’s team look like clear favourites in this highly contested race, but in the end, nothing is certain. Only time will tell what’s in store for Erling Haaland.
