Haaland makes Barcelona contract demand

Erling Haaland would consider a transfer to Barcelona in the summer – but only on a short-term contract.

A move to Camp Nou has enticed Haaland. The Borussia Dortmund striker may even accept a less lucrative salary compared to what he could earn at Real Madrid or Manchester City.

But if Haaland decides on Barcelona, he doesn’t want a deal any longer than 2-3 years. This way, Barca can offer him a better salary when their finances improve in the future or he could move elsewhere. [Le10Sport – in French]
