Erling Haaland

[Malta Blue]

As long as he don't go to spurs I'm happy

[dansubrosa]

He was born in Leeds wasn’t he, maybe he’ll head there.

If Leeds finish top 10 this year I wouldn’t rule it out.

He's being linked to Chelsea, can't see it happening since we have Timo unless Lamps wants to do a full wing conversion of him. But he would be a better fit being a big strong player to play up top on his own.

From what I've seen of the kid, he's actually able to play on his own and has the knack of finding the right passes for the forwards around him. Don't know if I've come to terms with potentially having Alf-Inge Haaland's son with us though

Haaland is quality, but if we get him that essentially puts Giroud and Tammy out, and Werner will just end up being a backup player.

Either that or Frank will just force him to play out on the wing which there is no point of

[icecoolguy22]

Why not, in the worst case another option on the right wing.

Playing Haaland as a winger would be criminal

[TheGreatestGame]

Haaland is built for the PL. He is very strong, physical and very faat. He is much better player than Sancho whose productivity has dropped significantly in the 20/21 season.

Costa is a free agent 👀

Wolves are being mentioned with Costa.

Well that makes sense.

Also kind of makes sense from Wolves' perspective with Jimenez out long-term. Fabio Silva is struggling a little (and can't play every game anyway, particularly not this season), plus they have no alternative who is a natural fit up front.

On the other hand, I can't remember the last time I saw Diego have a good game...

Me too, I rarely seen him play much for them.

He's one of the top 3 strikers in the world. He's a different class to werner. I'd take Jamie carragher son if it meant they were going to take us up a level. 

But there's no chance we sign a Raiola player and no chance Haaland chooses to come here. Bigger clubs will get him.

Impossible he isn’t Portuguese...mind you he speaks it

So who is this Haaland-boy? Any good? 🤔

I don't pay much attention to football outside of England, but he looks unbelievably good. Next-best-in-world levels good. 

If I've somehow missed sarcasm, apologies! It's Monday... oh lord, Monday always comes around.

[IliyaKrostin]

It would be a dream move, but I don't believe it's true. He easily can play in every team on the world, he's one of the best strikers in Europe and he's only 20 years old.

Worth every penny, but our history with strikers and big money transfers never work out. Anyways, I think he will go for a top club, I wish he could go for us.

[PloKoon13]

Wasn't he allegedly conceived in the Elland Road dressing room? Can't be dealing with that...

[Gol15]

More likely that Man City splashes the cash for him since they will be searching a replacement for Aguero.

[evissy]

Haaland would continue our rich vein of Norwegian top level tall strikers. Haaland is like Flo on steroids 😂

Wonder if Dortmund will take some sort of swap deal. Send Werner + Money for Haaland. Im betting Werner does very well for Dortmund

I completely forgot he is still a Chelsea player haha! Where he is on loan these days?

I would send both!

[sonic90]

He's got a £66m release clause and we are reportedly wanting to offer over the odds to secure him. He physically fits the profile of what we need more than Tammy and Timo and mentally this guy is a weird robot, I can't see him going the way of Morata etc.

I say sign him up.

[evissy]

Release clause kicks in 2022. If we want him this summer the price will probably be over 100m Sterling.
