Liverpool rivals Manchester City are reportedly set to secure the signing of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland in the coming days.

It is reported personal terms with Haaland and his team have already been agreed and the striker is expected to make the move from Dortmund official in the coming days to further strengthen an impressive City squad. Haaland has secured the status as one of the most feared strikers around after scoring 85 times in 88 appearances for Dortmund as he looks to make the step up and lead the line of City. After failing to sign Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane last summer, City have now turned their attentions to Norwegian Haaland with his release clause of £64 million becoming active in the summer.

The deal is expected to be announced imminently by the German club, Haaland having informed them of his wish to leave after two-and-a-half years in Germany.

The 29-year-old player is available on a free transfer if he leaves United in the close season as is expected. However, he already has 181 senior games at the age of 21 and City are confident he will be a success. City won 4-3 on the night but lost the return 3-1 to be knocked out 6-5 on aggregate. Real Madrid and PSG are among those that retain an interest in Pogba. Guardiola’s desire to also acquire Jack Grealish, who cost City a British-record £100 million (€117 million) when he joined from Aston Villa last summer, made the transfer of Kane impossible. Haaland will earn a basic salary of around £350,000 (€409,0000) a week with considerable bonuses and is poised to sign a five-year contract.

Haaland's Summer Transfer to Man City Expected to Be Announced ... (Sports Illustrated)

The 21-year-old Dortmund striker's €75 million release clause and immense talent have made him one of the summer's biggest transfer targets.

According to the BBC, Man City does not yet want to confirm the deal, although “virtually all parts” of the transfer have reportedly been agreed upon. Earlier this year, The Times reported that Haaland’s representatives held talks with City over a wage package worth more than £500,000-a-week. Per Ornstein, an official announcement on the move is expected this week once City formally gives notice to Borussia Dortmund that it will trigger the forward’s €75 million ($79.2 million) release clause.

Erling Haaland and Manchester City Near a Deal (The New York Times)

City, which is nearing its fourth Premier League title in five years, would be strengthened further by adding Haaland, the 21-year-old Dortmund striker.

Alfie Haaland signed with City in June 2000, only weeks before Erling was born, but retired in 2003 after several injury-marred seasons in Manchester and one infamous foul at the hands of Manchester United’s Roy Keane. But the numbers most likely put Haaland out of reach of other teams, including Barcelona, which is mired in a financial crisis that led it to lose Lionel Messi for free last summer, and Bayern Munich, whose sporting director said recently that adding Haaland “ doesn’t make any sense” for the perennial German champions since the team already employs a world-class striker in Robert Lewandowski. City and its rivals were facing a June deadline to activate the release clause in Haaland’s Dortmund contract — said to be worth as much as 75 million euros, or just under $80 million.

Haaland to Man City could give Ten Hag what he needs at Man United (Manchester Evening News)

Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland is edging closer to a €75m switch to the Etihad Stadium.

Failure to land Champions League qualification will undoubtedly have further impact on Ten Hag and pulling power in the short-term. Change is on the horizon as Ten Hag sets about a much-needed rebuild, with further alterations coming behind the scenes. Erling Haaland is set to finally touch down in the Premier League as Manchester City and Pep Guardiola edge closer to winning the goalscoring lottery. There is no doubt that Haaland will send shivers across the Premier League; when it comes to defenders and those dedicated supporters who pay their wages sat in the stands. Forget the buckets and spades, though, United merely dug themselves further into a hole against an impressive Brighton side. European heart-break put to one side, they have also, rather alarmingly, grabbed 89 goals post-Aguero in the Premier League alone.

BVB's star Norwegian striker will be leaving Dortmund for Blue-er pastures.

Haaland was never going to stay around forever: BVB’s front office ensured that when they gave him a release clause, and he was probably never going to join in the first place if they hadn’t done so. Haaland’s time with Borussia Dortmund will most likely be remembered as a mixed bag. Haaland will play his final game with Borussia Dortmund next weekend before departing for the North of England over the summer.

Not the easiest role in football, maybe, but surely the easiest decision to bring him in. It requires a mental shift to cope with that because it puts the focus squarely on a player's finishing for them to impress. Watching the ball circulated around him is unlikely to be an issue.
