Big clubs plan in time, they don’t wait for the last moment to make a big business move.Although the summer of 2024 is more than a year away, Real Madrid have launched an operation to bring in Erling Haaland in that summer transfer window! According to AS, the mission has been launched, with the aim of positioning the Royal Club as a top contender should the brilliant Norwegian decide to seek a new challenge at that time.In June 2024, the buyout clause in Haaland’s contract with Manchester City will be activated. Even the Spanish do not know exactly how much it is, but it is assumed to be between 220,000,000 and 240,000,000 euros. That’s not something the biggest club in the world can’t afford.##NAJAVA_MECA_7118248##The idea is to extend Karim Benzema’s contract until the summer of 2024, and then the Frenchman will receive a thank-you note, finish his career at Real, and have Haaland fill his place in the Madrid giants’ attack. It would be said that Real, for the time being, have given up on the idea of bringing in Kylian Mbappe, it would be an excessively expensive option now that he is no longer a free agent, and it is estimated that it will be easier to get the Norwegian. The plan to “attack” the Frenchman was left for June 2025, when his contract with the Parisians expires. The trio of Mbappe – Haaland – Vinicius is supposed to carry the Royal Club in the long run, and the space in the budget for their wages will be opened by the departures of Benzema, Modric, Kroos and Hazard, who ‘carry’ almost 50,000,000 euros.🗞️ AS’s Cover | Haaland 2024: Real Madrid reactivate the operation to sign the forward next year. pic.twitter.com/myXYopqR3N— Real Madrid Info ³⁵ (@RMadridInfo) March 23, 2023 There remains, of course, the other side of that story – Haaland. And the dilemma of whether he will even want to leave Manchester City. He ‘exploded’ like never before in the Citizens jersey, he excels on all fronts, he feels comfortable under the baton of Pep Guardiola. Although, Real’s invitation is not so easily rejected. After all, even Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t lack for anything in Manchester United, so when the call came from Madrid, he made the best move in his career.
