Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is not about to extend his contract with the Treble winners, with interest in his services from other giant clubs.
The Scandinavian superstar signed for Pep Guardiola in summer 2022 from Borussia Dortmund and it's safe to say that he's been a huge hit. Haaland has scored 69 goals in 71 appearances – and his contract still runs until 2027.

TEAMtalk have claimed that Manchester City want to remove any kind of release clause going forward and tie Haaland to a new deal – but the 23-year-old isn't in a rush to commit to new terms.
“This is not happening at the moment, it’s that simple,” sources claim. “But it is not really something to be worried about for City, this is nothing against them and Haaland is not about to depart or even thinking about it.
“Haaland has just covered his options and wants to make sure he is always in charge of his own destiny.”
