After Erling Haaland of Borussia Dortmund raved about the migratory bird mentality of superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic in conversation with the magazine “FourFourTwo”, the 19-year-old Norwegian now followed words that should calm the nerves of BVB fans significantly.
“I feel at home,” said the attacker in another section of the “FourFourTwo” interview about his third professional station Borussia Dortmund. After stepping onto the big stage for the first time in his home country at Molde FK in 2017, Haaland moved to RB Salzburg in January 2019, where he became the focus of the top European clubs.
At the beginning of 2020, BVB won poker for the offensive player, committed Haaland for 20 million euros and landed a coup: Haaland has scored twelve goals in nine competitive games for Borussia so far and broke several records.
In Dortmund he “immediately felt good”, Haaland justifies his top start. “The club helped me a lot and the start was fantastic. It’s not easy to get to a new location in the middle of a season.”
Haaland at BVB likes that
“I like the whole club, the history, the people and how the club is run. We decided that Dortmund was the best option and that was confirmed,” said the international, explaining why, despite better offers, for an engagement with BVB decided.
The fact that his steep climb did not even falter in the beginning does not put pressure on the left foot. “I like this speed,” Haaland clarifies and adds: “I’ve been doing it my whole life. It’s what I always wanted to do. And now I do. I always knew that I was a good player.”
There is no end in sight. With his performances, the striker has already positioned himself for even bigger tasks.
According to “Bild”, Haaland had a clause in his contract dated until the end of June 2024 that would allow him to leave BVB for 75 million euros from summer 2021. English top clubs as well as the Spanish industry giant Real Madrid are consistently hot candidates for a deal.
