Erling Haaland: Manchester City is ahead of other big clubs to sign the striker

Erling Braut Haaland is one of the most promising rising stars in world football and his statistics are quite insane for such a young player. With only 20 years old, he is already one of the most decisive goal-scorers in Europe, which at the same time, makes him the target of many top clubs in the world.

The interest of big teams for Haaland is not new but according to the German newspaper Bild it is Pep Guardiola's Manchester City the one in pole position to sign the Borussia Dortmund's striker, some steps ahead of giants like Real Madrid, Manchester United or even Chelsea.

With Sergio 'Kun' Agüero likely to part ways with the 'Citizen' club, the spectations of seeing Erling Haaland wearing the light-blue shirt and be coached by the Catalan genius Josep Guardiola is now more alive than ever. In addition, the Norwegian salary wouldn't be as high as the one of the Argentinean star which would make the opperation even easier for the club.

Even if Real Madrid is also interested in signing him, Florentino Pérez -President of the Spaniard club- has also put his eyes in the French jewel, Kylian Mbappé which means the Norwegian is not their only choice. Then, Manchester United is also following the player since he played for Molde and finally, Chelsea is interested too but they might not be able to afford the cost of the whole movement.
