Coach Pep Guardiola dismissed the rumors that Erling Haaland, who is playing in deadly form, will leave Manchester City. He said that City are very happy and that he has no release clause with Real Madrid or any other team and that everything is rumours. “I have a feeling he’s very happy here. We try to make people happy here. He is much loved”, he said.
Haaland is widely rumored to join Spanish giants Real Madrid in 2024 for a fee of $197 million. Guardiola’s explanation is in this context. The player has scored 19 goals in 12 games for City so far. City signed the 22-year-old from Borussia Dortmund for $58 million. According to the contract, the player will have to stay at City until 2027. While this is the case, there are rumors that Real Madrid will acquire the star by paying a huge release clause.
