Haaland’s Real Madrid Dream Rekindled
Erling Haaland has been linked with a move to Real Madrid for years, and it seems the Norwegian striker is still eager to join the Spanish giants. The Borussia Dortmund forward has consistently stated his admiration for the club, and his father Hans-Joachim Watzke has hinted that he could make a move in two or three years’ time.
Haaland joined Manchester City in 2021 after spending two-and-a-half years at Borussia Dortmund, where he established himself as one of the top goal-scorers in the Bundesliga. With seven goals in the Copa del Rey and a prolific strike rate in all competitions, Haaland is widely regarded as one of the most talented players in world football.
Pérez‘s re-election as president has only added to speculation about Haaland‘s future. The Real Madrid president had promised to recruit the striker during his presidential campaign, and it seems that he is still committed to making a move for Haaland.
“I know exactly what he thinks, and I can say that he admires the Real Madrid and wants to play for them in the future. But next season, he will continue to play for Manchester City. Without any doubt,” said Hans-Joachim Watzke during the president’s campaign.
Haaland‘s desire to join Real Madrid is not new, and it has been a subject of speculation in football circles for years. The Norwegian striker has consistently stated his admiration for the club, and his talent and goalscoring ability make him an attractive signing for any top-tier team.
“I think he will play for Real Madrid in two or three years,” said Hans-Joachim Watzke.
