The “Chiringuito” program revealed that Erling Haaland may leave Manchester City in the summer of 2025, taking advantage of a release clause that begins at that time in his contract with the English club.
This news comes a few hours after it was published about a meeting between Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, with Haaland’s agent, Rafaela Rafaela Pimenta, to discuss a possible deal.
According to the Spanish program, Haaland’s contract, which extends until the summer of 2027, allows him to leave starting in 2025, with a huge penalty clause worth 175 million euros.
City management will not stand in the way of the Norwegian’s desire to leave if she is present at that time, as there is an agreement between the two parties on this matter, which opens the door for the two Spanish poles to contract with her at that time.
Real Madrid remains a potential destination for the 22-year-old, as President Florentino Perez dreams of bringing Haaland and Kylian Mbappe into one team and may take advantage of the advantageous economic situation to do so.
As for Barcelona, it wants to revive the competition with Real Madrid despite its economic crisis, and in light of this condition, simply agreeing with the player may mean the start of the Mbappe era against Haaland in the Spanish League.
It is noteworthy that Manchester City entered into negotiations recently with Haaland to renew his contract, but the results are still vague and unknown so far.
