Sports director Michael Zorc talks about Haaland’s change

The future of Erling Haaland continues to cause speculation. Before Borussia Dortmund’s Bundesliga top game at FC Bayern, BVB maker Michael Zorc has now also commented.

According to sports director Michael Zorc, a change from star striker Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund to the English Premier League would not “completely surprise” BVB. That’s what Zorc (59) said on the pay-TV channel Sky shortly before Dortmund’s top game on Saturday evening (6:30 p.m. / in the t-online live ticker) at FC Bayern. Haaland (21) has been associated with various top clubs for weeks, most recently with Manchester City. The Norwegian international can leave BVB after this season due to a €75m release clause.

Zorc avoided concrete statements. “I’ve also read a lot about what we’ve already done, what’s already signed,” said the outgoing sporting director. So far, only the transfer of Niklas Süle (26), who comes from Bayern in the summer, is fixed. According to dpa information, national player Karim Adeyemi (20) is also moving from Red Bull Salzburg to Dortmund for the coming season. “Obviously he’s a player we know well and don’t think is that bad,” said Zorc.
