Dortmund-Haaland's war begins... And Barça waits!

The FC Barcelona prepares for the next market of signings and Erling Haaland continues being the main aim of the Barcelona picture, although there is not consensus in the club by his high price, of some 180 million euros. However, the meeting of the past Thursday between Joan Laporta, Mino Raiola and the father of the Norwegian forward, in addition to the refusal of the Borussia Dortmund in leaving him leave, could be key in the weeks to come.

The 'turn' of the agent and progenitor of the star of the European football in the actuality began the Thursday, with the visit to Barcelona and Madrid to gather with the representatives of both clubs and know the intentions of the same to do with the traspaso of Haaland. A day before, the Wednesday, Raiola and Alf-Inge Haaland gathered with the sportive director of the Dortmund, Michael Zorc, to insist in the exit of the player of the Signal Iduna Park.

According to the newspaper 'ACE', the representatives of the Norwegian communicated him that it wanted to undertake a new challenge in a team of first level and that his intention, for the moment, is to leave in the summer. From the Dortmund, however, reaffirmed the refusal in leaving him leave in this window of transfer. Zorc, later, said to 'Sky Sport' that "leave him very clear ours intentions" to Raiola and company.

Intentions, money and options of exit

These intentions, of agreement to the information that publishes 'ACE', refer to that they do not go him to leave leave before the 2022 (when there would be an agreement so that it go by 75 millions) and that only would seat to negotiate if it arrives an offer by the 180 'kilos' that ask in this moment. Like answer, Raiola and the father of Haaland also left clear his intentions and thus they began the 'turn' to pose a possible traspaso.

On the other hand, it relates the half Madrilenian, the team of Haaland would have accessed to the conditions, but these have date of caducity. If the Dortmund does not classify to the Champions League the season that comes, will go back to insist with more strength in the exit of the forward and will open a new stage: the economic needs. The European competition supposes a 'thick' of the income of the clubs and, of not assisting to the tournament, would remain in a committed financial situation.

For the moment, the Dortmund has very complicated his presence in the next Champions. They occupy the fifth position of the Bundesliga, with 43 points, seven less than the Frankfurt, in the fourth square. The defeat of this Saturday, by 1-2, in the Signal Iduna Park, is a new push to Haaland to the door of exit. The another road of classification would be to win the tournament in this season, but also is very difficult. In quarter-finals have to confront to the Manchester City (main candidate to carry the title) and, to surpass it, would confront to the PSG or Bayern Munich. A mission that, a priori, seems impossible.

If they do not achieve the classification, the 'Operation Haaland' will go back to take weight and only there will be an option: sell it. To be like this, could achieve between 150 and 180 million euros that can serve like the 'mattress' to survive to a season without the Champions League and the extra income that this competition supposes.

The Barça expects patient

The most likely is that the Dortmund remain without Champions, what will intensify the options of the FC Barcelona in doing with the index card of the young but talentoso ariete. In the offices of the Camp Nou keeps on being the first priority and Joan Laporta expects to continue moving index cards to achieve the first traspaso 'galactic' in his second stage like president of the club.

The -big- problem will continue being the price of the player. Like this it reduce to 150 'kilos', continue being a mount very elevated for the Barça, by what there will be begin a 'cleaning' massive of the changing room to put up for sale to sufficient players that later can cover the traspaso of Haaland.

In this sense, from does some months, footballers likeP hilippe Coutinho, Martin Braithwaite, Riqui Puig, Junior Firpo, among others, have turned into the main options of the Barça to go out to the market, sell, lighten the mass salarial and welcome him Erling Haaland.
