There has been plenty of speculation around Erling Haaland’s contract with Manchester City lately. Reports coming from Spain first said the Norwegian sensation had a ‘special Real Madrid clause’ which would enable the 14-time European champions to sign him even against the will of the Premier League title holders in 2024, but City boss Pep Guardola quickly denied the existence of such a clause.
But in a fresh turn of events, The Athletic have revealed that Haaland actually has a release clause in his contract which kicks in in 2024, and it can be triggered by any club outside England, not just Real Madrid, by forking out €200 million.
City, however, need not worry about it just yet, and not just because there’s almost two years still to go until the summer of 2024, but also because the 21-year-old is apparently extremely happy living in Manchester and playing for City, the club where his father played too.
City, on the other hand, need not be concerned just yet, not only because there are almost two years until the summer of 2024, but also because the 21-year-old appears to be very happy living in Manchester and playing for City, the club where his father also played.
