The fact that Real Madrid is without a doubt the most powerful club in the world of football is validated by the fact that they consistently dominate the transfer window. Players of the highest caliber often reject offers from other teams once they get involved in the process.
An example of this that is somewhat recent is Jude Bellingham. In spite of the fact that Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea, all of which are located in his native country, made bids to him, the Englishman decided to join with Madrid for 103 million euros.
Kylian Mbappe is the lone player who has constantly deceived them, since he has chosen to remain with Paris Saint-Germain despite receiving offers from Madrid on many occasions.
On the other hand, Madrid is sure that they will be able to secure his contract, which means that this drama may finally be coming to a close this time around. And in the event that he decides to continue his contract with Paris Saint-Germain once again, Florentino Perez will most likely not return with an offer.
Madrid is going to seek elsewhere for reinforcements, and of course, one of the choices that might be considered is Erling Haaland, who is now playing for Manchester City. They have made it clear that they are interested in the Norwegian, but they have not yet taken any action in this regard.
According to a report from AS, Haaland is willing to wait to see what happens with the Mbappe to Madrid scenario before making his final choice. This is despite the fact that the Cityzens are prepared to grant him an extension on his current deal.
On the other hand, Haaland is concerned about not being able to play alongside Mbappe. What he is worried about is whether Madrid will be able to pay both of their big wages while still adhering to the limitations set out by the FFP.
In all likelihood, a condition in his contract with Manchester City makes it possible for a team from outside of England to exercise his release clause at a reduced cost.
Despite this, the striker does have a sense of importance at City. Despite the fact that he has only played in the Premier League for two seasons so far, he has not only won all that is possible, but he is also the protagonist for the team.
But he does make a connection between his future and that of Pep Guardiola. In the event that the Spaniard decides to depart City in the near future, whatever of the reasons for his decision, it is anticipated that Haaland would follow him out the door.
Having said that, Haaland is also aware that Madrid is interested in acquiring Mbappe before they are interested in buying him. In the event that the transfer is finalized, it would be more advantageous for him to extend his contract with Manchester City for the time being.
