Erling Braut Haaland has stated that he is ‘keen to move on’ from his recent comments suggesting that Borussia Dortmund were pressuring him to make a decision over his future.
Earlier this month, the 21-year-old told Swedish news outlet Viaplay that he was feeling pressure from the Bundesliga giants to decide if he was ready to commit his future to the club or move elsewhere.
Dortmund has since denied putting a deadline on the striker’s decision, with sporting director Michael Zorc claiming that “Erling’s statements surprised us a bit”.
However, the Norway international has now revealed that he would like to draw a line under those comments and concentrate on his football.
Speaking to Sky Sport News, Haaland said: “I felt it was time for me to say something. A lot of others were speaking, so that was it.
“And now I really don’t want to say too much more about it. What has been said, has been said, and we move on.”
Haaland is expected to be at the centre of a transfer tussle between Europe’s elite clubs in the summer, when his £64m release clause becomes active.
Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have all been credited with an interest in the striker, who has scored 80 goals in just 79 appearances for Dortmund across all competitions.
