Chelsea turn away from Erling Haaland

In recent months, Chelsea have been heralded as Real Madrid’s main contender for the Dortmund striker. The merengue club may have a boulevard in front of it in 2022 …

If Kylian Mbappé has been causing a lot of ink to flow for months, and even more in recent weeks when we are at a crucial moment in his career, Erling Haaland is nonetheless forgotten. Yes but here it is, the Norwegian striker does not benefit from any exit voucher for this summer because of his long contract still in force with the German club. Dortmund do not want to sell, whatever the price, and made it clear.

So for this summer it’s dead, but it’s only postponed for next season when Haaland should get his release certificate. Nevertheless, it seems that not everyone is ready to wait another year and especially Chelsea. Indeed, the Blues are on the verge of enlisting Romelu Lukaku according to several corroborating sources.

In recent hours, the case has accelerated according to Di Marzio and The Athletic. The Inter Milan striker would have informed his leaders that he wants to join the Premier League and the London club would be willing to put the package since we are talking about 130 million euros today … ‘Either way, the realization of this case would make those of Real Madrid because the Blues are among the best equipped to compete with Real on the Haaland file.
