Borussia Dortmund are forcing Erling Haaland to make a decision on his playing future, according to him.
After establishing himself as one of the world’s best attackers at the age of 21, Haaland has been linked with a big-money move to a number of Europe’s elite teams.
After scoring twice in Dortmund’s 5-1 win over Freiburg on Friday, Haaland revealed that he was unable to fully concentrate on football due to his club’s pressurised campaign.
“I’ve opted not to say anything over the last six months out of respect for Dortmund.”
“But now the club is pressuring me to make a decision, but all I want to do is play football,” he says.
“However, they force me to make a decision on my future right now.” As a result, I’ll need to make a decision shortly.
“I’ve always maintained that I want to focus on football because that’s when I’m at my best, not when I’m thinking about other things.”
“They’ve been applying pressure for quite some time now. So now is the time to begin. I only want to play football, but I am unable to do it at this time.” (Source: Viaplay)
