Barcelona Presidential candidate promised to sign Haaland if elected

Barcelona presidential candidate Emili Rousaud will sign Erling Haaland if he is elected, says his aide. 

Haaland is one of the hottest youngsters and probably the next big thing in the world of football having netted 17 goals in 14 games this season. He has attracted interests from a number of clubs including Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea. 

But as reported by AS, Josep Maria Minguella declared the Norwegian would move to the Nou Camp if Rousaud takes the helm at Barcelona.

“We know all the conditions and if we win, the following day I will call Mino Raiola and we will accept those conditions. I have already advised him of that.”

“We have a world-class sports project that is not showing just now, but Emili Rousaud has a plan that will turn this unfortunate situation (at Barcelona) around.”

The 20-year-old has a release clause in his Dortmund contract of £65million which comes into effect from June 2022 – with the German side unwilling to sell before then.
