Bayern Munich on their part does not want the player to leave on a free transfer and would listen to offers in case contract negotiations with the striker fail.

However, Daily Mail reports that Manchester City has sealed a deal with the Norwegian Haaland ahead of the summer window.
Meanwhile, Barcelona has also penciled a list of names like Real Sociedad’s forward, Alexander Isak, Red Bull Salzburg’s striker, Karim Adeyemi, and Inter Milan’s striker, Lautaro Martinez, as resolve if they miss out on their prime targets.
