Erling Haaland has addressed rumours that a big-money move to Chelsea could be on the horizon.
Haaland looks set to be one of the best strikers in the world for the next 10-15 years, so it’s no surprise that there’s such a clamour around him.
Virtually every top club on the planet has been linked with a move for the Norwegian, but there’s only one who appear capable of affording him this summer – Chelsea.
Chelsea were in a healthy financial position heading into the summer prior to their Champions League triumph, with a cool £50m already having been raised through player sales.

As a result, Thomas Tuchel’s men have been linked with a HUGE move to sign Haaland from Dortmund, potentially to the point of £150m [€175M] worth of expenditure.
It’s a crazy amount of money for one player, and Haaland appears to agree.
Here’s what the Dortmund superstar had to say on the matter when quizzed by reporters…
“I hope it’s just rumours to be honest.” 😬
