Federico Valverde in a deal for Erling Haaland?

Meanwhile, Haaland has been a key player for Manchester City, and his departure would be a blow for them. It will be interesting to see if they are willing to let their best striker leave the club in order to improve the midfield. For Real Madrid, it could be an excellent addition. They are in desperate need of reliable number nine, and the Norwegian could fill that void.
It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks.
Even though Manchester City need to improve their midfield unit, they cannot afford to let their best players leave. Replacing the Norwegian striker will be very difficult for them, and they should have to keep him at the club at all costs.
