Khaberni - Media reports mentioned that Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has begun early negotiations for a major deal.
Madrid Zone stated that Erling Haaland's name has come up strongly in the corridors of Real Madrid, with confirmation of direct contact between Florentino Pérez and the player's agent, Rafaella Pimenta.
It added: "This move reflects the continuing interest of the royal club in the Norwegian striker, who has been viewed for years as one of the top dreams of the sports management in its future project".
It continued: "The president of Real Madrid does not hide his desire to sign Haaland, dreaming of completing the deal as soon as possible, possibly starting from next summer. However, Pérez is aware at the same time of the complexities surrounding this file, both in terms of contract and financially, given the player's strong contract with Manchester City and the difficulty of negotiating with a club that is not forced to sell".
It emphasized that: "Within the club, Haaland is seen as a perfect piece for a long-term project, especially with the approach towards building a team that combines physical strength, speed, and offensive effectiveness, and his ability to decide within the penalty area, along with his remarkable scoring record in the English Premier League and the Champions League, constantly keeps his name in the sports planning discussions".
It concluded: "Despite the big dream, the administration is dealing realistically with the current situation. Manchester City is holding on to its top star, and the deal would require record numbers both in terms of transfer value and salary. For this reason, maintaining communication with the player's agent is a strategic step, aimed at keeping the channels open in anticipation of any possible changes in the situation".
