The agent of Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has confessed plans are already being drawn up for the Norway international’s eventual departure from the Etihad, talking up a move to Real Madrid in the process.
Haaland joined City in the summer and has been typically prolific, scoring 33 goals in as many games, but those around him have consistently flirted with the idea of a short stay in Manchester to allow the 22-year-old to test himself in as many different leagues as possible.
Agent Rafaela Pimenta has added fuel to the fire of a possible move to Real for Haaland, admitting the Santiago Bernabeu outfit offer a unique appeal that cannot be found in the Premier League.

And Real Madrid has something of its own that makes it the Dreamland for the players,” Pimenta said at the FT Business of Football summit.
Pimenta went on to continue the narrative that Haaland’s stay with City may not be a lengthy one, confessing that her agency are already working on a long-term plan for the striker’s future.
“In my agency we try to make a plan,” Pimenta explained.
“But now, if I ask a player ‘what is your goal?’ he will say the Premier League.
He doesn’t say City, Chelsea or Arsenal but the Premier League.”
Pimenta continued: “The day the market [transfer window] finishes is the day I start visiting clubs to talk about players, to see what may be in the future.
