Manchester City striker Erling Haaland reportedly has a surprise destination in mind amid interest from Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Manchester City forward Erling Haaland is reportedly interested in a switch to Paris Saint-Germain in the near future.
The 24-year-old was on the scoresheet once again for the Citizens on Saturday afternoon, when the English champions lost at the home of Brighton & Hove Albion.
Haaland showed plenty of determination to fire in an opener during the first half, however strikes from Joao Pedro and Matt O’Riley secured a comeback success for the Seagulls on the South Coast.
For the first time since the arrival of Pep Guardiola on the blue side of Manchester, the Citizens have lost four straight competitive matches, leaving them second in the Premier League table.
The collective struggles of Man City have not stopped Haaland breaking goalscoring targets, though, with the Norwegian netting 15 times across 16 games so far in 2024-25.
According to a Spanish report via Football365, Man City star Haaland could be in line for a shock transfer at the conclusion of the 2024-25 campaign.
The report states that the 24-year-old is considering a surprise switch to PSG, who are said to be interested in the services of the striker.
It has been widely reported that Haaland will move to either Real Madrid or Barcelona in the near future following the end of his Man City stint.
However, it is believed that Les Parisiens have now entered the fight for Haaland, who could opt for a change of scenery and a move to the French capital.
The striker’s contract at the Etihad expires at the end of the 2026-27 term, with the player’s future at the club largely dependent on how long Guardiola decides to stay put in Manchester.

Haaland’s next destination
Arriving at the Etihad for around £51m from Borussia Dortmund in 2022, Haaland has been more than worth the price tag for Manchester City.
The towering forward has helped the Citizens to secure back-to-back Premier League titles, as well as their first-ever Champions League success in 2023.
Playing 114 competitive matches for Guardiola’s troops, Haaland has found the net on an eye-watering 105 occasions.
