In the middle of preseason, Haaland receives shocking news from Juventus, Guardiola trembles

Erling Haaland is one of the men of the moment. The player has just won the UEFA Champions League, triumphed in Manchester and is also the new cover of the most famous soccer video game of all. Now, the player is close to return to preseason training, however, unexpected news comes to the player from Italy from Juventus.

Vinzenzo Morabito, an intermediary hired by the Vecchia Signora in 2018 to closely follow the current affairs of a young Norwegian striker who was starting to break it in Molde, has been in charge of confessing in Tuttosport the details of a transaction that had everything finalized but ended up being frustrated by the analysis of the technical direction of the Piedmont team on the role of the star.

"Despite the fact that Juventus was the only big club that had noticed Haaland's talent, they made an incredible request for a 17-year-old - 10 million euros!However, seeing that Erling was attracted to Juventus, they were willing to evaluate a more reasonable proposal: 2.5 million at the time," he confessed.

Was Haaland rejected by Juventus?

Everything seemed to be closed, confesses Vinzenzo Morabito in the Italian media: "He and his father stayed in Turin for a few days in December 2017 to watch the derby against Inter. The family and the boy were very impressed, to the point of accepting in a short time with Molde the offers made". However, the Norwegian did not accept the conditions to start playing in the youth team as Juventus wanted and Salzburg appeared to take him as one of their big reinforcements.
