Erling Haaland Linked to Future Transfer to Real Madrid

Former Borussia Dortmund president Joachim Fatske said that Norwegian striker Erling Haaland, currently under contract with Manchester City until 2034, is likely to join Real Madrid within the next two to three years. Fatske noted that Haaland has expressed a strong affection for the Spanish club and holds no binding agreement with any other team, giving him full freedom to decide his next move.

Haaland’s market value is estimated at about €200 million, placing him among the world’s most expensive players. Interest in the striker has intensified after his performance for Norway at the 2026 World Cup, where he helped the team eliminate Brazil from the knockout stage. Reports suggest that Real Madrid has been monitoring Haaland since his teenage years, and the potential transfer is described as “just a matter of time.” Manchester City have denied any release‑clause clause in his contract, while Haaland’s agent emphasizes the player’s right to choose his future.

The speculation adds to ongoing discussions about Haaland’s long‑term club future and the financial impact such a move could have on both the Premier League and La Liga.
