Real Madrid cant afford me ffs never mind a 100m plus deal
Who do you think are the favourites, considering the reasons that I and others have outined?in your opinion
I don't think they're favourites at all

He is not going to Serie A, and he has already proved himself in Bundesliga. It's Premier League or Real Madrid next. But I think he will want to play a year under Rose before he moves on. (Might move on if Dortmund misses CL.)For starters I don't think he moves this summer, I think he goes when his release clause kicks in and when it does I think either Bayern or Juventus
We sign him we win the league IMO.

Heard the same for mbappe at psg with the cl. Never that simple ok my viewTrue for any club he realistically ends up at.

Hes far too good for dortmund.
It’s better for us he stays the extra year. We can get the other three jigsaw pieces (Sancho, DM, CB) we need this summer - and next year we’re very appealing for him you’d imagine. Ole, Sancho, a style that suits him, biggest club in the biggest league, young talented squad that will only improve and the chance to be the main man that returns a massive club back to its former glory. Plus the shit ton of money. Not a bad project but I’m sure some negative tits on here think he’s better off joining Cheltenham.
Scored 4 goals in 2 legs vs sevilla yet his team were hanging on to go through.Visibly pissed off when going off at FT. Threw his jersey to Mere, Koln's defender, and walked straight down the tunnel without interacting with anyone else.
Was frustrated throughout the game as well. Scored both goals, missed a couple of chances as well, while his defenders made two stupid mistakes to concede both goals.

Henderson, AWB, Mctominay, Shaw, Martial, Greenwood, James and Rashford are not at their peak years yet and should improve considerably. That’s just from our first team - completely ignoring the talent that’s coming through our academy - and the fact I said we add 3 more signings this summer. Spend well this summer then we will have a very good, young squad. At some point people will wake up to this fact.This whole ‘young talented squad who will only improve’ claim. The only player I’d stake my house on improving significantly is Greenwood. The only other players under 25 who are legitimate first team choices are Rashford and Wan Bisaka, both 23. And in neither case do I see a definitive case for significant improvement. The rest of the players are likely already at their peak, or are some very highly hyped teenagers who have not actually proved anything yet. Not to say those teenagers won’t, but every big club in the world will have a talented batch of academy players from whom their fans expect greatness over the next few seasons.

Pretty sure we have the youngest squad in the league or until very recently anyway.I’d say all 3 of those forward players, who are 23, 23 and 25, are absolutely in their peak years. Plenty of forwards, especially pacy ones are most productive and dangerous in their early twenties, and teens in some cases.
Shaw is currently having a fantastic season, so to say he’ll ‘considerably improve’ from this already very high level? That’s a hope not an expectation.
Henderson is not a first team pick and even if he was it would be at the expense of De Gea- I’m not sure that’s an improvement.
And AWB and Mctominay? I’m not sure either has the ability to be a genuinely elite, successful Man Utd first team player either now or in 2 years. Bring young is not the same as being on the brink of being a great player, just look at Arsenal.
Sore loser.
It is bullshit.https://www.football-espana.net/2021/03/20/joan-laportas-plan-to-sign-erling-haaland-for-barcelona
No idea how credible they are but talk of Barca doing whatever they can to finance a deal.
Sorry - to say players at 23 are at their peak years is total unequivocal nonsense. Especially attackers/forwards where decision making, consistency and confidence is vital. To also suggest a side who are second - have only 2 (Matic and Cavani) players that still contribute over the age of 28 - and 7 first teamers in our most regular lineup 25 or under - haven’t got fantastic scope to improve in the future suggests you may have a bit of an agenda.I’d say all 3 of those forward players, who are 23, 23 and 25, are absolutely in their peak years.

If he wants Madrid which felix diaz claims he does, and madrid want him as the star signing then they will find the money. Even if it involves players going the other way. I said if madrid come sniffing this summer, the premier league can forget about it. And if they didnt come this summer, hed go city. Diaz is very reliable for madrid. I think ABC in spain have reported it too.Real Madrid will find the neccessary bunce down the side of the sofa and he will end up there. Raiola will push it as well as Pogba. Raiola doesnt like Utd.
If your Haalands camp. You sit down to discuss the next project for your son to join over next 5 years. Winning CL trophies has to be high in the list, it leads to individual honours normally ala balon d'or. Which clubs can help us achieve that?
Madrid? Yes the best history in the competition, have an affinity for winning it. Play under a legendary ex-player in Zidane. Lots of chances will be created for you on the pitch. If the money they have been saving isn't spent on Mbappe then they will buy you. Do you want to go somewhere were you weren't the defact no1 target?
City? Not won it yet, but will happen. Backed by a gulf state and desperate to win the trophy. Domestically dominating. Also you get to play under one of the greatest managers if his generation and improve as a player. Lots of chances will be created for you. Dont have the history of other clubs on this list.
Barcelona? Maybe not the best time to join. Financial issues. Messi approaching retirement. Uncertain times. All the play will go through Messi so you will have to adapt. Lots of chances will be created on the pitch for you to score. Koeman's future is unknown.
Man Utd? No league title in 8 years. No CL in over a decade. A manager who has never won a major trophy in his time at the club (as manager). Pogba potentially leaving. Wide forwards who are more interested in scoring themselves than creating chances for you to score. However you know the manager personally.
Juventus? Financially cripped by Ronaldo wages. Normally dominate domestically, however Pirlo is still a unknown. Dont have a great history with winning the CL. Still harder to score in Italy than anyother league due to the defensive outlook of most teams.
Bayern? Don't need you they have leodowski for a few more years. However like Madrid have a great CL history and dominate domestically.
PSG? French league isnt the best. Desperate to win the CL trophy though. Can match or beat any financial package any other team offers. Get to play with Neymar and Mbappe.
Liverpool? Klopps future is uncertain. Team is reaching an end of a cycle. How much are the owners willing to spend to refresh it? Probably the lowest wages of all the teams on this list. Salah their best paid player is on 200k a week.
Chelsea? Tuchel doing a very good job so far. Young team thats in the right age bracket. London is a attractive location. Could be potential CL winners again by end of season. That could tip the balance in their favour ala Eden Hazard decision to join after Chelsea won CL and reject Utd.
So from all of choices, if you were Haalands camp and advising him, where would you go? The answer isn't Utd. There are better teams for him to join at this stage in his career.
There is a big chance that Dortmund might miss out on qualifying for the CL this season, which means there is big chance that Haaland will be on the move come this summer. It would make so much sense him coming here, we are in desperate need of a striker of his quality and he would most likely have no trouble at all to slot right into our team. That being said it won't be easy to convince him to come here considering that pretty much every top team in Europe is after the lad.
