Real Madrid are said to be more excited by the prospect of signing Erling Haaland than they are Kylian Mbappe.
Haaland stole headlines once again last weekend as he hit yet another hat-trick for Manchester City.
Haaland scored a treble against Fulham at the Etihad, leading to Alan Shearer branding him ‘phenomenal’.
It was a clinical display of finishing from the 23-year-old, who wasn’t involved in the game much.
But that is usually the case with Haaland. He is in the team for one reason, and he does his job amazingly well.
Haaland is very, very happy at City.
But that does not stop speculation about his future and there will seemingly always be one club that will be linked with him…
Real Madrid more excited to potentially sign Erling Haaland than Kylian Mbappe
SPORT have reported that Real Madrid still think about signing Haaland.
The Spanish giants wanted him before he made his move to City.
SPORT report on Haaland because recently, there has been some talk about him potentially signing new contract at the Etihad.
Obviously, him agreeing a new deal would make it much harder for Real to sign their long-term target.
It is stated that Real are actually so taken by Haaland, that they are more excited about him potentially signing for them than Kylian Mbappe, who is described by the publication as a ‘traitor’. Perhaps that is because of reports Mbappe could stay at Paris Saint-Germain beyond next summer.
Haaland-Real Madrid will never go away
City fans will have to get used to the Real Madrid link to Haaland, because they are likely never going away.
It is clear they absolutely love the Norwegian.
And they are probably only one of a handful of clubs that stand a chance of signing him in the future.
City fans will surely not have to worry about Haaland leaving for a few years yet.
He is doing truly special things right now, and appears to be absolutely loving his time at the Etihad.
And long may that continue.
