Dortmund striker Haaland keeps Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man City waiting

Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland will make a decision on his future by the end of this month.

The 21-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid, who will face competition from Manchester City and fierce rivals Barcelona for the youngster’s signature.

The release clause of £63m in the Norwegian’s current contract at Signal Iduna Park has to be activated before 30 April, which is why Haaland will decide between Madrid, Barca or Man City by the end of this month.

All three clubs are said to have held talks with agent Mino Raiola and Haaland’s father, and all of the contract offers clearly state the sporting and economic elements Haaland will benefit from.

According to many outlets, Haaland wants to leave Dortmund in a respectful manner as he holds a good relationship with the club and the fans, so he will communicate with the German outfit first about his decision.

During his two-and-a-half seasons at Dortmund so far, Haaland has netted an impressive 80 goals in 83 appearances for the club, breaking Champions League goalscoring records along the way.
