Real Madrid plot spectacular Haaland move

Real Madrid are ready to usher in a new Galactico era with the signing of Erling Haaland from Manchester City.

Spanish reports are insistent that while the deal seems a long way off, Madrid believe they can pull it off.

Central to the success of the transfer will be Vinicius Junior. The Brazil international could be sold to the Saudi Pro League next summer if he does not sign a new contract, providing around €250 million in funds for Los Blancos to go chasing Haaland.
