Norwegian attacker Erling Braut Haaland is unaffected by constant speculations surrounding his future according the his coach at Borussia Dortmund.
FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester and Manchester City have been mentioned as possible destinations for the attacker who is currently on the books of German club, Borussia Dortmund.
Speculation over a blockbuster close-season transfer mounted during the international break when Haaland’s agent, Mino Raiola, accompanied his father – and former City player – Alf-Inge on trips to Madrid and Barcelona.
Speaking on the eve of Tuesday’s quarter-final clash between Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium, Dortmund interim boss Edin Terzic insisted such matters could not be ones to cause him too much concern.
“It has no impact on me because I can’t stop Mino Raiola and Alfie Haaland from travelling. It’s up to them, they’re grown-ups and they can choose whatever they want to do,” he said.
“I just can have an impact on Erling and we are happy to have him in our team.
“He’s been back with us since last Thursday, when he came back from the Norway national team
“The feeling we had from the start was that he was very happy to see us and we’re very happy to have him around.
“He’s a lovely guy, his qualities are well known all over the world and we are proud and happy he’s part of our team.”
Haaland has scored 33 goals in 32 club appearances across all competitions this season.
