‘Haaland won’t have problem adapting to English football’

Borussia said ‘no’ to Haaland’s sale this season, but the pressure is still there. Dortmund’s Erling Haaland should remain in Bundesliga in 2021/22 season, but Chelsea is not giving up yet. The Blues are currently selling massively, and have mounted over 7.7 billion Ksh so far, and they are yet to sell, in order to trim the squad but also to launch a massive ‘we couldn’t refuse’ offer to Borussia for the Norwegian striker. Currently, it has been written that it will be a 47 billion Ksh offer. Chelsea already earned 7.7 billion Ksh from sales, and there are more players to be soldMedia reports about the upcoming Haaland transfer are intensifying and the newest among them is the assessment from the former Blues striker and fellow Norwegian, Tore Andre Flo. Former player is currently a member of Chelsea staff (how convenient), and was asked if Haaland would adapt easily to the Premier League and England. “I don’t think he would have much problem adapting to English football. The culture over in England is quite similar and the way of living for someone coming from Norway would be quite easy, or at least it was for me. We all already speak the language quite well, so there should be no problem there” said Flo.Chelsea nails a half a dozen on their pre-season premierFormer Blues strikers scored 34 goals in 112 Premier League matches in his three-year career at Chelsea and he has no doubts that Haaland would do well in the strongest league in Europe, and score regularly.  “Obviously, on the pitch, it can be much tougher because it’s a very tough league, tougher than any other in the world I think. That is the biggest challenge for players coming from Scandinavia. But then that’s a challenge for most players coming to the Premier League from other countries. I think pretty much any club would be a good fit for him because he’s an exceptionally good player and has scored a lot of goals. He seems to just get better and better. With what he’s shown so far, especially in the Champions League against all types of very good opposition, he’s proven that he can score goals at any level” said Flo. In case that Chelsea finally submit the giant bid and Dortmund still refuses, reports from the island are saying that the Blues contacted Robert Lewandowski’s agent in order to lure Bayern star to Stamford Bridge. As per Bild, initial talks have been made and Chelsea could offer a 7.5 billion for the 32-years old Pole.
