The agent of Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has confessed plans are already being drawn up for the Norway international's eventual departure from the Etihad, talking up a move to Real Madrid in the process.
Haaland joined City in the summer and has been typically prolific, scoring 33 goals in as many games, but those around him have consistently flirted with the idea of a short stay in Manchester to allow the 22-year-old to test himself in as many different leagues as possible.
Real Madrid were keen on Haaland before he moved to England and are widely accepted to be among the leading candidates to sign the striker when he does eventually leave, with Haaland's father admitting they saw Los Blancos are their third-best option behind City and Bayern Munich.
Agent Rafaela Pimenta has added fuel to the fire of a possible move to Real for Haaland, admitting the Santiago Bernabeu outfit offer a unique appeal that cannot be found in the Premier League.
“There is the Premier League. And there is Real Madrid. And Real Madrid has something of its own that makes it the Dreamland for the players," Pimenta said at the FT Business of Football summit.
"Madrid keeps this magic going. It doesn’t have the league competition but it does have the Champions League.”
