Haaland representatives arrive in Barcelona for transfer talks

Erling Braut Haaland's father and agent have been pictured arriving in Barcelona amid growing speculation surrounding a move to the Catalan giants for the Borussia Dortmund forward.

Haaland has caught the eye of several top-flight clubs in Europe with his performances this term, as he boasts 33 goals from 31 appearances in all competitions for the Black and Yellow during a phenomenal season.

The Norway international is understood to possess a £68m release clause which activates next summer, but several clubs are expected to enter a bidding war for his services in the upcoming transfer window, although Dortmund would supposedly demand a fee in excess of £150m.

As reported by the Daily Mail, Haaland's agent Mino Raiola and father Alf-Inge Haaland have been pictured in Catalonia, and it is thought that Haaland's representatives will hold talks with Barcelona over a proposed summer transfer.

However, Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Manchester City are all believed to be keeping a close eye on developments as well, with the latter stepping up their efforts to find a new striker after Sergio Aguero's imminent departure was confirmed.

Bayern Munich have also been tipped to move for the 20-year-old, but Karl Heinz-Rummenigge has seemingly ruled out a move for Haaland given the form of Robert Lewandowski.
