Man City want to sign Erling Haaland this summer after missing out on Harry Kane last year; Erling Haaland has a 75m euros release clause in his Borussia Dortmund contract; Real Madrid are also keen on the striker but their priority is to sign Kylian Mbappe if he leaves PSG.

Pep Guardiola's side have been leading the race to sign Haaland this year and his release clause means Borussia Dortmund are resigned to losing the striker this summer.

The 75m euro fee - which equates to £62m - for Haaland is widely considered to be below market value, but reports in the English media on Tuesday suggest City will have to pay the 21-year-old - who is represented by Mino Raiola - more than £500,000 per week.

Dortmund - who play Bayern Munich in Der Klassiker on Saturday, live on Sky Sports - are set to sign Red Bull Salzburg striker Karim Adeyemi as the Norwegian's replacement.

City have often played without a recognised striker this season following the exit of club-record goalscorer Sergio Aguero at the end of the 2020/21 campaign.

Guardiola was keen to sign Harry Kane from Tottenham last summer and City had offers turned down for the Spurs striker, who expressed his desire to leave north London in search of silverware.

However, the England captain is now enjoying a fine run of form under Antonio Conte as Spurs bid to finish in the top four of the Premier League.
