Erling Haaland sets just one condition to sign for Real Madrid

A few years ago, we talked about them as the heirs to the throne left vacant by Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland emerged as the two reference footballers back in 2020, and all the major transatlantic clubs began to dream of signing them. Some, in fact, such as Real Madrid, even predicted the possibility of bringing both of them together on the same team.

It was said several times that this was Florentino Pérez's great dream. However, the Madrid president always focused more of his efforts on bringing Mbappé to the capital. It took him quite a while, almost seven years of constant attempts, but in the end, he succeeded.

Meanwhile, Erling Haaland kept establishing himself as the great Nordic god of the 21st century at Manchester City. But at Real Madrid, they haven't forgotten about him, and many media outlets close to the club's current events see the possibility that he could end up wearing white. In fact, it has been said repeatedly that his dream is to wear the Madrid badge.

"He would really like to play for Real Madrid, as his own entourage confirms to us," journalist Jorge Picón said just a few days ago. In addition, it should be remembered that, although he has a contract until 2029, he has an escape route in case he wants to leave earlier. The amount is not yet known, but if that happens, he can activate a release clause at a not excessively prohibitive price.

With all this, we can't rule out that Erling Haaland could become a Real Madrid player soon. He isn't in the main plans of the white club, but if it happens, why not. However, there is a sine qua non condition for this fanciful move to take place.

Erling Haaland yes, Vini no

For Erling Haaland to fulfill his dream of wearing white, Vinicius Jr. has to leave first. The truth is that this isn't a utopian scenario either. It should be remembered that the Brazilian still hasn't renewed his contract and that this year has been especially controversial for him. He always is, but in addition, this year he hasn't quite fit in with Xabi Alonso's doctrine.

This is how Jorge Picón explained it: "If Vinicius stays, I see it a little more difficult for Haaland to arrive." So, this summer, Santiago Bernabéu could once again become an absolute soap opera. Who knows if Flo could end up fulfilling his fantasy of bringing together Mbappé and Erling Haaland at Real Madrid.

The Norwegian striker, while these rumors keep surfacing, keeps doing his thing. He currently has 18 goals in the 14 matches played this season and is shaping up to be Mbappé's main rival for the golden boot. Both in the Champions League and in the Premier League, the former Dortmund player averages more than one goal per match.
