"Haaland, 25, has unsurprisingly been an instant hit upon joining City from Borussia Dortmund in 2022 for €60million. In his first season at the Etihad, he broke the Premier League record for the most goals scored in a 38-game season in the English top flight, and he remains a deadly terror for defenders today, as he proved with a pair of fine goals in the Manchester Derby on Sunday."
"According to El Nacional, Barcelona president Joan Laporta is obsessed with bringing Manchester City striker Erling Haaland to the club, and he and his associates are confident it will happen at some point in the future. Barcelona are, of course, on the lookout for a long-term replacement for 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski, and Haaland certainly ticks all the right boxes."
Joan Laporta is intent on bringing Erling Haaland to Barcelona and remains confident the move will occur eventually. Haaland, 25, joined Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund in 2022 for €60 million and immediately became a prolific scorer. In his first City season he broke the Premier League record for most goals in a 38-game campaign and continues to trouble defenders, most recently with two goals in the Manchester Derby. Barcelona require a long-term successor to 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski, and Haaland would pair attractively with Lamine Yamal and Raphinha. Haaland’s contract at City runs through summer 2034, making an imminent transfer unlikely given financial realities.
