Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims the club have made a sensational offer to Borussia Dortmund star Erling Haaland ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Blues are trying to sign the Borussia Dortmund striker as they look to belatedly replace Sergio Aguero in their team, having failed to land a marquee forward in the last summer transfer window.
They are believed to be leading the race for the 21-year-old’s signature, while La Liga giants Barcelona and Real Madrid are also keeping tabs on his situation.
According to Patrick Berger of SPORT1, as translated and relayed by BVB Newsblog, Manchester City have made an initial offer to Borussia Dortmund for Erling Haaland, totalling a staggering €105 million in an attempt to win the race for the Norway international.
The report states that the amount includes the player’s Dortmund release clause of €75 million, as well as agent commissions to the likes of Mino Raiola and Alf-Inge Haaland.
Patrick Berger also claims that Real Madrid are out of the race for Haaland, on account of their interest in Kylian Mbappe and the continued success of Karim Benzema despite his age.
The report was shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters.
