Raiola’s job is to talk. He can name all these clubs he wants. Many are not feasible. Barcelona and United have uphill battles to make the UCL. If they don’t make it, there’s zero chance for them. Even if they do, I doubt Barcelona could finance a transfer. No chance either of Bayern. We are not selling our best player to Bayern. It’s not like they could afford him either. They don’t spend big on transfers. I don’t know why he’d even name them.
Man City, PSG, and Madrid are all options. I’m not sure where Haaland will play next season. Pep says he can’t afford to purchase Kane. Can he afford Haaland? It seems like he doesn’t think his system needs a high priced CF. I don’t see how Madrid can have Benzema, Mbappe, and Haaland in the same lineup. Two rigid CF’s positionally and a third striker in Mbappe. Could they even afford those two additions and then some defensive players?
PSG is an option purely due to their money, but the player has to actually want to play in that league. I’m not convinced either that if Mbappe leaves ( not a sure thing) that they just replace him with another big name attacker. That team needs more balance. Very hard to run a team successfully with three star attackers.
Raiola stands to lose a profit if Haaland does not transfer. He wants all his clients to switch clubs every summer. He didn’t even say anything too important either in that interview. It was so blown out of proportion by people that would rather see Haaland play elsewhere. I guess Dortmund isn’t as prestigious as seventh place clubs like Barcelona and United.
We will see. No one is going to give us a chance to keep our players. I already know that, but we kept hold of Sancho a season longer than all of them expected.
