Agent denies requesting £17m fee from Erling Braut Haaland deal

Erling Braut Haaland’s representative Mino Raiola has denied reports guaranteeing that he requested £17m from any deal for the Borussia Dortmund forward.

Mino Raiola and Haaland’s dad Alf-Inge Haaland landed in Spain a week ago for conversations with Barcelona and Real Madrid, both of whom are interested to strike a deal for the Dortmund striker this summer.

A new report asserted that both of Haaland’s delegates were requesting a fee of £17m each if they effectively negotiate a move for the 20-year-old, however Raiola took to social media to deny the rumours as hearsay.

The super agent posted a simple message on Twitter which read “fake news travel quickly and far” on Sunday night, as speculation over the Norway international’s future continues to intensify.

Erling Haaland’s entourage are perceived to have planned talks with Premier League clubs ahead of the  new transfer market, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City all connected with a move for the 20-year-old lately.

Notwithstanding, Erling Haaland himself has apparently requested to play alongside teammate Martin Odegaard, whose Real Madrid future is right now undetermined after an amazing loan spell at Arsenal.
