# Manchester City: Fans are ecstatic over Erling Haaland release clause revelation

**Erling Haaland has lit up Europe so far this campaign, turning the heads of top European scouts due to his exploits for Red Bull Salzburg, and now a [report from Bild via FourFourTwo](https://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/erling-haaland-release-clause-man-utd-transfer-news-dortmund) has loads of Manchester City fans rubbing their hands together at the prospect of activating his cheap release clause.**

According to the piece, City could potentially snap up the Norwegian wonderkid for a cheap fee of €20m (£16.8m) following the revelation that Haaland has a release clause in his contract.

The 19-year-old, son of former Sky Blues player Alf-Inge, has burst onto the scene this campaign with a phenomenal goalscoring record – bagging [27 goals in 20 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/erling-haaland/leistungsdaten/spieler/418560) this season with eight of them coming in the Champions League.

As a result, supporters are ecstatic that they could potentially secure his signature for a relatively bargain fee – with Pep Guardiola’s men potentially needing to plan for the future as Sergio Aguero reaches the latter stages of his career.

Here’s what they had to say on Twitter:
