# Liverpool: Reds linked with stunning Erling Haaland move

**Liverpool and both Manchester clubs are reportedly interested in making a move for Borussia Dortmund superstar Erling Haaland next summer.**

### The Lowdown: Haaland emerges as world star

Few footballers in the world are currently more highly-rated than the Norwegian predator, with the 21-year-old producing outrageous numbers for Dortmund.

The [£117m-rated](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/erling-haaland/profil/spieler/418560) striker has scored 63 goals in just 64 appearances for the Bundesliga giants, also netting eight times in 13 caps for Norway. Indeed, only Kylian Mbappe is valued at a higher amount by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/spieler-statistik/wertvollstespieler/marktwertetop), an indication of Haaland’s standing in the global game.

### The Latest: Liverpool tipped to make move

The 21-year-old has remained at Dortmund for the time being, but according to [Diario Madridsta](https://diariomadridista.okdiario.com/real-madrid/madrid-no-asusta-competencia-haaland-148814), Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City could all be willing to rival Real Madrid for his signature.

Haaland’s current deal doesn’t [expire](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/erling-haaland/profil/spieler/418560) until the summer of 2024, so a huge fee would likely be required to snap him up next summer, especially with his exceptional goal tallies.

### The Verdict: Highly unlikely

In truth, it is extremely difficult to see Liverpool signing Haaland, given his probable wage demands (he is already on [£141,000 per week](https://salarysport.com/football/player/erling-haaland/)) and the amount he would cost.

The Reds simply don’t have the same financial clout as the two Manchester clubs, both of whom [spent big this summer](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/premier-league/transfers/wettbewerb/GB1/saison_id/2021/s_w/s), and unless someone like Mohamed Salah was to move on and free up funds and a place in Jurgen Klopp’s team, it is hard to see this move happening.

This summer has shown Liverpool’s limitations in the transfer market, buying in only [one player for £36m](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/transfers/verein/31), and how their rivals can pay huge wages, and it is difficult to see the situation changing any time soon.
