Erling Haaland fully affected by rumors linking Kylian Mbappe with Real Madrid transfer as details emerge: Reports
Manchester City forward Erling Haaland is reportedly being impacted by the rumors of Kylian Mbappe joining Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Earlier this year, football journalist David Ornstein claimed that Kylian Mbappe would be leaving PSG to join Carlo Ancelotti's Real Madrid in the summer. Later, Spanish outlet MARCA revealed that the Frenchman has already signed a contract with Los Blancos and will be joining the La Liga giants as their highest-paid player.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano recently revealed that the French forward is not open to negotiations with any other club than Madrid. He wrote in his column for Caught Offside:
"I can say once again that Kylian Mbappe has no intention to hold talks or negotiations with any other club. This is the best news possible for Real Madrid as everything remains advanced, everything is being prepared."
However, it's been reported that Norwegian attacker Erling Haaland is not happy with the news. According to the Spanish newspaper AS, Erling Haaland is shaken and fully affected by Mbappe's potential arrival in the Spanish capital.
As per the report, the Norwegian forward was also imagining himself at the Santiago Bernabeu and with the Frenchman's arrival, his dream to join Real Madrid will also be affected. It is believed that Haaland had a release clause in his contract, which would allow him to join the La Liga giants in 2025.
