PSG's room for maneuver in the Haaland deal is very clearly marked today. Explanation.
Sky Sport journalist Gianluca Di Marzio , transfer window specialist, responded to German media Wett Freunde about Erling Haaland : “The Premier League is certainly the dream championship for every player, but it's not in his head [Haaland, note] and it's not his first choice. I don't know why, because all players now want to stay at Manchester United or Chelsea. Even last year, when Chelsea tried to get him, he didn't insist on going because he thinks Real Madrid or FC Barcelona are the clubs that are the right stop for him at this time. -the. Only Real Madrid and Barcelona can have him, as he cannot go to Atletico de Madrid or other clubs. Probably because, like Mbappé who wants to play for Real Madrid, he told his agent he had to try Real Madrid. And if it is not at home, it will be in Barcelona, and if it is not in Barcelona, it will be in Chelsea, Man Utd, etc. ”.
Financial leverage
If the elements provided by Di Marzio prove to be correct, then PSG has a clear vision of the future. While FC Barcelona does not represent any danger given their financial condition, Real Madrid on the other hand appear largely in pole position as they are the player's preference. All these elements provide clear confirmation that the only chance for PSG will be to offer unattainable contractual figures for Madrid, which must already finance the contract of Mbappe , in order to generate questioning in the mind of Erling Haaland . And with this in mind, the strategy aimed at establishing a favorable context with Mino Raiola , developed with the Donnarumma deal, appears to be completely coherent.
