Haaland’s Agent Shuts Down Transfer Talk as Man City Keep Control

Her message points to a low chance of a near-term move given City’s leverage.

Overview

  • Erling Haaland’s agent, Rafaela Pimenta, told ESPN there is nothing to discuss about a transfer and said the striker is happy at Manchester City.
  • Pimenta called City the most difficult club to negotiate with and said "we don't have any leverage" in talks with the Premier League champions.
  • Reports say Haaland signed a long-term deal last year that runs to 2034, with Goal adding that buyout clauses were reportedly removed.
  • Persistent links to Barcelona and Real Madrid continue, yet Haaland’s output for City — 160 goals in 195 games — strengthens the club’s stance to keep him.
  • Yahoo Sports highlighted Pimenta’s portrait of Haaland as modest and laser-focused on football, which fits a player driving City’s pursuit of more trophies.
