Manchester City and England forward Raheem Sterling, 27, is on a list of players AC Milan want to sign amid reports of a potential £850m takeover of the 18-time champions of Italy. Is this a good decision for Manchester City? What if Haaland gets hurt?
Manchester City have told Dortmund and Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, 21, that he could join Real Madrid later in his career if he moves to the Etihad this summer. The signing-on fee and agent commission on a potential deal could add £40m to the £63m transfer fee stipulated by Haaland's release clause. Interesting news. Does Haaland really have that much desire to play for Real once?
Real Madrid and Barcelona are both interested in signing Chelsea and Germany defender Antonio Rudiger, 29, who is out of contract at the end of the season but is keen to stay at Stamford Bridge. What Rudiger will decide in the end?
I doubt that Sterling is at a level where he would go to Milan, that would be a drop down for him. He plays well in City which is a much much better team than Milan, so why go there right now? I get that they might have some big takeover and all, but I do not think that it means Sterling needs to quit City and go there.
I do not know if Haaland wants to play for Madrid all that much, doubt that any player who really desires to play for Madrid all that much would send his father to meet with Barcelona, which means he must be just considering his options. I wouldn't go to City neither if I were him, I would pick Barcelona or Madrid, but if he went to City, he would definitely be a beast there for sure.
I also doubt that Raheem Sterling is willing to move to AC Milan, because as you said, the levels of Man City and AC Milan are different at the moment.
Moreover, Sterling's performance is quite good in my opinion, so if Sterling decides to move, it is impossible to choose AC Milan as his new club.
Sterling will wait for offers from several big clubs who are almost the same level as Man City, but if no big club is interested in him other than AC Milan,
I predict Sterling will stay at Man City until his contract expires next year.
To be honest, it's still a big question where Haaland will move to, therefore there are more and more rumors talking about Haaland's future.
What is certain is that Haaland will definitely choose a club that can fulfill all his demands, so far Man City is the one who has been most linked
with Haaland. Because apart from Man City really needing a striker position, Man City also has strong finances that can meet all of
Haaland's demands. But indeed surprises can happen, because Real Madrid and Barcelona are also reportedly eager to get Haaland. So we have
to wait for further developments, to find out where Haaland will choose to move.
