Erling Haaland on Real Madrid rumours: ‘You know’

Erling Haaland has refused to rule out leaving Manchester City for Real Madrid in the future.

Haaland is currently in the middle of his second season in Manchester.

However, he already has the Premier League, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League with City.

He is under contract at the Etihad Stadium until June 2027 but is rumoured to be able to leave before then to take on the challenge.

Haaland, 23, spoke at a City press conference on Tuesday ahead of the second leg of the UCL round of 16 against FC Copenhagen.

At the press conference, a journalist told Haaland: “With everything you’ve achieved in your career so far, here last season and this season, there are inevitable hypotheses about your long-term future.

“Real Madrid has been presented to you as a club imaginable, but do you think you have everything here at this club to stay there for the long term?Anything I want as a player?”

Haaland responded openly. He said: “I’m happy, especially with the other people around me. The manager, the directors, the board of directors. . . It’s an amazing organization of other people and I have to say I’m happy. “

“If I say that now, it’s probably going to make headlines. . . Tomorrow, you never know what the long term will bring. But again, I’m happy. You can write this, but I also have to write everything I’ve written. “”I said correctly before. I’m happy. “

Haaland is set to move to Madrid this summer, and the Spanish giants will invest heavily in signing Kylian Mbappe.

Mbappe looks set to join Madrid in a flexible move from Paris Saint-Germain, but a huge salary and registration fee could make the Frenchman the club’s highest-paid player of all time.

Haaland has played senior football for five other clubs to date.

After his career at Bryne, he moved from Molde to Red Bull Salzburg and Borussia Dortmund, before joining City in the summer of 2022.

But Haaland also rejected the possibility of signing him in 2016 following a lawsuit at Tuesday’s press conference in Copenhagen.

“Sad for them, but maybe smart for me because I went to Molde and it was a smart choice,” he said.
