Barça would be 'discarded' in the race for Erling Haaland

The pessimism has installed in the FC Barcelona in the last two days regarding a possible signing of Erling Haaland. Although it is true that during the past week informed of the supposed offer of the culés to Mino Raiola to achieve to the Norwegian and a meeting of Xavi with the own footballer in Munich, now the situation seems to be much more complicated and 'inalcanzable' for the culés, as they are the things.

The Saturday at night, Joan Laporta recognised that "I deny that there has been any type of negotiation by Haaland. Neither meeting, neither conversation. At all, And on the possible meeting between Xavi and Haaland in Munich, this is not of my incumbencia, but can two sportsmen speak of football, suppose".

Few hours afterwards, from the surroundings of the footballer of 21 years recognised that the battle by his signing was between the Manchester City and Real Madrid. Jan Aage Fjortoft, spokesman of the famila Haaland, stood out in statements to 'ESPN' that "by the moment, think that the subject is between two countries and two clubs. Have the feeling that the Madrid and the City are by in front, but is an own feeling, is not any information" and in his account of Twitter aimed to a "propaganda" by part of a club.

However, this Monday the Barcelona have received a true vase of cold water regarding the traspaso of Haaland. The journalist of 'The Athletic', David Ornstein, has descartado completely to the Barça of face to the future of the ariete Norwegian and leaves clear that the battle by his signing is between the Real Madrid and the Manchester City (as it recognised Jan Aage Fjortoft) and, besides, the two clubs will know the decision of the player in the next two weeks.

From it does some days has come informing that Haaland will decide to finals of March what will do of face to the future. It is between the option to continue in the Borussia Dortmund a year more or take advantage of his clause liberatoria of 75 million euros for this summer and concretise his traspaso to Madrid or Manchester, his two only likely destinations of agreement to the last informations.

Ornstein, in any case, has stood out that "the clubs that pretend fichar to Erling Haaland expect to know his decision in the weeks to come. It considers that it will be Real Madrid and Manchester City", aimed, explicandp that the White House would prefer to expect a year, but will go in in the bidding if the Norwegian decides to go out of the Signal Iduna Park.

"The Real Madrid wants to Mbappé this year and to Haaland the one who comes, but could have to move now since the Manchester City is smart for fichar now to the Norwegian now -the English club will not expect a lot of-", sentenced. Like this then , as it is the panorama, the Barça would not be between the candidates to do with the services of the player except a change of last hour.

Mbappé And Haaland, together?

That would be the big nightmare of the Barça of Joan Laporta. The president wants that Haaland play in the Camp Nou, this is clear, but also avoid that the Norwegian finish in Santiago Bernabéu, because it knows that beside Kylian Mbappé (that it aims to arrive free in pertinent summer of the Paris Saint-Germain), Vinícius Jr and Karim Benzema, the eternal rival can form a lethal and insuperable forward.

By his part, in the Madrid know that it is an only opportunity and, in spite of that would prefer to expect a year more, will not lose the opportunity to do with the services of Haaland. Will have to Mbappé without cost any (further of the premium of signing) and Florentino Pérez dreams with inagurar to finals of this 2022 the new Santiago Bernabéu with a new galactic trident: Mbappé, Haaland and Vinícius Jr.
