Bayern Munich chief, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, has given the clearest indication yet of where Erling Haaland will play next year after revealing details of a conversation he held with his Borussia Dortmund counterpart.
Haaland, 21, is already one of world football’s most fearsome forwards. Since moving to Dortmund from RB Salzburg in 2020, the Norwegian marksman has operated at around a goal per game.
Dortmund have fostered a reputation for developing young players into truly elite stars. In Haaland’s case, that process took less than two years.
However, the German giant are rarely able to reap the rewards of the time and effort they invest into their players. If not Bayern Munich, then another European powerhouse tends to snatch their best players.
