The CEO of Leipzig confirmed his low release clause on German TV show "Doppelpass" last sunday.
Erling Haaland / signs for Dortmund

Thanks for sharing. So it's a low risk signing with potentially high rewards for the clubs involved.
Depends on the salary and Raiola s fees too
I’d suggest reading the whole thread, it’s there
Tried last week. Just ran another search for the word 'Martial' in this thread. Can't see anything, not even quotes.
Closest I got was:
I'll keep searching because i'm at work and slacking, but i still think it's made up.
Probably has a clause and in effect it's like the De Ligt sale with Ajax wanting a reasonable fee and not just the highest bidder. The player will go to the right club for a nominal fee.
The rumours are strong today linking a move to Juventus. Some more reputable papers are picking up today's rumours and running with it.
Just been reading the juventuz forum. Some over there think he wouldn't be a starter unless Higuain leaves or maybe Bernardeschi and then play a slightly different Formation.
Hopefully the rumours are just that.

Nope, Haalands signing being detrimental to Martial and Greenwood has definitely been brought up by several posters here, as an argument for why we should focus on a Midfielder. Because in this day and age, we can't do both at the same time possibly.
OK, I trawled through the thread and found a few:
A fair comment. Hesitant on the impact on more pressing signings. Also an 'if' Martial performs.
This guy would prefer a more mature, experienced striker with a goal record proven over consistent seasons. Fair comment at the time.
Not clear on where this one stands. This again, was before people were aware of his apparent release clause. So i'd say the reservation is in the expected transfer cost.
This one is interesting. I think this is in reference to Martial's link up play, and its hard to disagree, but doesn't mean we shouldn't sign Haaland.
Ye, this one probably fits.
This was from page 100, and an obvious WUM.

Lets go to copenhagen and hunt Haaland
I didn't say we don't need him! So not even close.
Agreed.
To be honest, I don't think anyone has really said "we don't need him because of Martial". It's usually more like "Martial will do for now, I'd prefer the budget to be spent..." - which is saying the finances are a deciding factor.
Clearly you haven't read @DoomSlayers posts
Sounds reasonable
We do need someone who gets into the box and onto the end of crosses, but we're set up where we need a striker who can hold up the ball and bring others into play. It would need a major restructuring of the team to allow Haaland to play, that would greatly impact our midfield (which isn't great as it is), then we'd concede more goals and create less.
It’s a catch 22 situation, we’d need to improve our fullbacks and midfield at the same time, which as we all know is highly unlikely to happen.
Trust me, he's said a lot of other shite
There's only one Nemanja!
@ me next time (properly), big man. You are one of the biggest agenda posters on the forum so it's laughable to see you trying to belittle other members of the Caf.
Just look at your tagline, even the mods are making fun of you, yet you have no shame and never stop with the BS.

Late nominee for rant of the year?
Are you really saying this? Look at your pathetic attempt to put my opinions down on this thread to make yourself look like a tough guy. Is Haaland so precious to you that every different opinion hurts your feelings?
Nothing hurt my feelings. I can dig up posts where I've given constructive criticism of Martial, where I even caveat he is talented in the same post... and you quote me because I said something bad with the good.. calling me a "martial hater" or a "martial basher".
Seems like you're the forever offended one, trying to claim Haaland would definately cost £80m and shouldn't displace Martial. It's all in your posts. No one knows of any fee yet, but you've clipped on to one £80m rumour to drive an agenda against him. It's clear you think its binary as Haaland or Martial, which is laughable at this stage:
And your bias against Haaland, who you clearly haven't followed as a players hows in this post:
Out of the 4 clubs Juve seem to make the very least sense. Only reason he wants to move there is the star power of Ronaldo. For me this is just the agent leaking rumours again trying to drive up the price as per usual.
I have a strong affinity to Martial, but I have been criticising him in his thread recently, I'm not blind to his bad performances and tendencies. My argument always was give Martial a chance to prove himself and he isn't exactly doing that at the moment, unfortunately for the team because we need more from our number 9.
I have also not been involved in this thread for some time, circumstances and new information can change someone's opinion, or do you not understand that? If the price is right, get Haaland, but also get a CM and a CAM, because we need creative players.
The last point is truly hilarious, because that post was clearly made sarcastically and in jest. I can't believe I have to explain that.
It's immaterial, I was simply using your posts to explain how others in the caf do use Martial as a reason not to pursue Haaland.
And @Lynty quoted a post of mine that was balanced, to which your reply was basically calling me a shit poster. Not sure what your purpose was with that, other than take a jibe at me.
Don't want to continue with this, let's get some transfers done for reasonable prices in January and be done with it. If Haaland is one of them, that's great, but we need more creativity, it's quite obvious.
Sitting hear drinking my first gin and tonic for the day. It just dawned on me that if Haaland is wanting insurances that Ole is going to have a job for the time coming, he should have already made his mind up since any other manager would have been sacked by now.
Not so sure about that. At Juventus he can have best of both worlds....a less demanding league in which he can continue to progress without losing the bumper wage. (Apparently Juventus salary offer matches ours)
What sort of insurance is available?
Because you kept banging on about it being only him vs Martial, and calling him Crouch and so on. Anyway you can hide by the "it was meant in jest" reasoning, I don't really care. Lets move on.
He’s signing for United if we are offering him 200K per week. Juve won’t and can’t match that and nobody says no to more money

Martin Ødegaard is laughing at you right now
He did last time
The whole idea of him moving to a lesser club was so that he could play regularly And get plenty of minutes to develop. They’ve got dybala on the bench ffs, Haaland isn’t going to play more than 1/3 of a season there.
if they’re really considering Juve then every other club is open.
personally I think all this is just the papers filling news columns.The Italians had some united fans thinking Mandzukic was signing JAN 1st
now he’s In Qatar...Just about start my drink of choice, I'm hoping we can get this guy in. I think Martial isn't a 9 more a left forward or 10, we need this man child - good in the air and in the six yard box. Do whats right Ole bring this guy in..
