Jase 43,479 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Guardian's story on Haaland... https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/jun/08/dortmund-plan-to-keep-haaland-amid-Chelsea-interest-but-ready-to-sell-sancho Borussia Dortmund remain determined to keep Erling Haaland for another year despite Chelsea’s desire to sign the striker. ...A deal for Haaland, valued at more than £150m, will be extremely difficult to complete. Dortmund are adamant that the Norway international, who turns 21 next month, is going nowhere yet. The Bundesliga club are in a stronger position after qualifying for the Champions League and plan only one big sale. They will not stand in Jadon Sancho’s way if Manchester United, who are interested in the winger, meet their €90m (£77.5m) asking price for the England international. Dortmund demonstrated that they are not easy to push around when they refused to drop their asking price for Sancho amid interest from United last summer. Their plan is to keep Haaland for another season, with a transfer more likely next year. Another complication is the cost of signing Haaland. It is understood that Chelsea, who broke their transfer record when they signed Kai Havertz from Bayer Leverkusen for £62m last summer, are reluctant to spend £150m on the forward. They would prefer to negotiate a lower fee for Haaland, whose agent, Mino Raiola, could seek wages of about £300,000 a week for his client. Barcelona and Real Madrid are unlikely to be able to afford Haaland. Chelsea have considered putting forward a swap deal involving Tammy Abraham, who is up for sale. However Dortmund are likely to insist on a straight fee for Haaland. Dortmund have been linked with another Chelsea youngster, Callum Hudson-Odoi. However it is understood that Hudson-Odoi is happy at Stamford Bridge and wants to fight for his place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some say €75M and some say it's closer to €100M. Either way it's a lot less than what Dortmund could potentially get this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,952 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Perhaps we can use the fact that Norway aren’t at the Euro’s to our advantage. Buy him before United even actually come in for Sancho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its at a point where Marina will see where Dortmund will budge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styl1994 188 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 The way I see it Rice probably staying at West Ham one more season with them being in Europe give Guehi a go as a squad player at CB signing Haaland makes sense imo if you can get it done from the club point of view a lot of money yes but he would be huge marketing wise and Nike would probably up our shirt sponsorship money because his such a huge star plus unlike Lukaku if he was to move on in five years we would get our money back.

Artandur 939 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 The only thing making me have a sliver of hope is that BVB would have to explain to their investor how selling him next year for less than half the fee was a good fincancial decision.

Haaland will def go for 100m less next year though True but it's the same thing either way - Dortmund selling their star player for less money a year later. Based on their stance with Sancho last summer and Haaland this year, would like to think they have weighed up the financial benefit and sporting benefit (e.g. qualifying for CL, winning a cup) by keeping a star player for another year. One could argue that it was Sancho's return to form this year that helped propel Dortmund into the Top 4 after their horrendous form under Favre and early on under Terzic.

DH1988 1,348 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I would prefer we wrap this up this summer, shock, but mainly due to the fact we are coming off of the UCL win and, similar to Hazard, our pulling power will never be higher until we win it again. There is no telling what happens next season with the teams able to pay his wages when his rumoured lower release clause comes into effect. now or never.
