Haaland finally makes Chelsea transfer decision ahead of summer transfer
According to transfer expert Gianluca DiMarzio, Chelsea made a move last summer to sign Erling Haaland.
However, the report claims Dortmund forward ‘didn’t push to go there’ and the deal did not go through eventually, with Chelsea signing Romelu Lukaku instead.
This is so because Haaland ‘doesn’t like the Premier League too much’ and would rather join Real Madrid or Barcelona next summer.
In fact, as per the report, he would even prefer to stay a season more in Dortmund than move to England.
However, DiMarzio explains further: “It is not sure that he’ll leave in the summer. Borussia Dortmund thinks that for his career, another year there should be the right step.
“I don’t know what Mino Raiola thinks about it. I think Raiola wants to get him out of Borussia Dortmund because after two years there it is important for him to have another challenge.
“So I think he will try to find the right solution for him.”
We’ll have to wait and see if Chelsea reignite their interest next summer.
