Erling Haaland’s agent Mino Raiola has said that the reported Liverpool target could move to Manchester City, as quoted in Sky Sports.

Raiola has said that Haaland, linked with a move to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, will leave Dortmund in the summer of 2022.

The super-agent has mentioned Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City as a potential destination for the 21-year-old striker.

Raiola, though, has not mentioned Liverpool among the clubs Haaland could move to.

90min reported last month that Liverpool are planning to make a bid for the Norway international striker.

Mino Raiola on Liverpool target Haaland

Sky Sports quotes Raiola as saying about Haaland: “Maybe this summer, maybe the summer after. But there is a big chance that Erling will leave this summer. We will see.

“He can and will take the next step. Bayern, Real, Barcelona, City – these are the big clubs he can go to.

“City have won the championship five times in the last few years, much more than United. We all knew when we moved to Dortmund that this step would come.”

Could Anfield move happen?

Now, Raiola may not have mentioned Liverpool, but, in our opinion, the 21-year-old striker could join the Reds.

After all, Liverpool are a superpower in world football and regularly compete for major honours.

And win them too.

In our view, Liverpool should certainly be in the mix for Haaland in the summer of 2022.

The striker, who earns £132,000 per week (Salary Sport), is a goal machine.

And he would make Liverpool much more potent and threatening than they already are.

Haaland has scored 11 goals and provided three assists in seven Bundesliga starts for Dortmund so far this season.

The Dortmund striker scored 27 goals in the Bundesliga and 10 goals in the Champions League last season.
