Erling Haaland sets new season target with Borussia Dortmund despite Chelsea rumours

Young strike sensation Erling Haaland has set new targets for himself and his club, Borussia Dortmund ahead of the new German Bundesliga season after the club's 2-0 loss to Spanish club Athletic Bilbao in the preseason.

''It's good to be back and to play my first game of preseason. The result obviously wasn't good, but that's not what it's about," Haaland told the club's official website.

"It goes without saying that we want to win, but getting to run and play with the team and work on certain situations is good. The season starts in two weeks, and we're going to be well prepared for it.''

Haaland scored 41 goals in 41 games in all competitions in his first full season for Borussia Dortmund last season and was voted Bundesliga player's Player of the season. He has now set more winning targets ahead of the new season despite reports linking him away from the club.

Chelsea are reportedly interested in his signature to bolster their attacking options for next season and have submitted a bid of £130m to sign the 20year old.
