Erling Haaland’s switch from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City is said to be perfect. The courted BVB star has a lucrative contract with the English champions and table leaders.
Manchester City has been the favorite to sign Erling Haaland for weeks. Now both sides have allegedly finally agreed to work together from next summer. The Italian transfer expert Nicolò Schira reported on Twitter on Friday evening.
Haaland’s move from Borussia Dortmund to the Premier League heavyweight is a “done deal”, according to the journalist, who also reveals the details of the multi-million dollar deal.
Accordingly, Haaland’s contract in Manchester runs until 2027 and guarantees him an annual salary of around 30 million euros.
BVB collects at least 75 million euros
BVB has no say in the future planning of its goalscorer because Haaland has an exit clause. A transfer fee of 75 million euros should flow to Dortmund for him. That’s what Shira wrote too. Recently, it was said in several media reports that there could be possible bonus payments.
An official confirmation of the change from the clubs involved is still pending.
Should the Haaland case finally come to fruition, a month-long transfer saga about the 21-year-old Norwegian will end. For a long time, Real Madrid was considered the favorite for his commitment. FC Barcelona and even FC Bayern were also said to have increased interest in Haaland.
Who will follow Erling Haaland at BVB?
According to media reports, BVB has already come to terms with the departure of the offensive star for weeks. The search for a successor is therefore in full swing behind the scenes.
Possible candidates are Huko Ekitike (Stade Reims) and Adam Hlozek (Sparta Prague). Both strikers are 19 years old and are considered highly talented.
