‘We don’t care’, ‘Tebas sees things differently’ – Man City fans react as Real Madrid chairman makes bold Erling Haaland claim

Real Madrid chairman Florentino Perez has made a bold claim about Erling Haaland, insisting he would not have found a place in the Madrid team.

Perez said that Karim Benzema would have started ahead of the Norwegian phenomenon, which is why Madrid didn’t sign him.

Madrid were linked with Kylian Mbappe for the past year or so, with it seeming like a done deal at one point, before the Frenchman instead decided to stay with PSG for a few more years.

Perez explained that Mbappe and Benzema would have fit in the same team, but that Haaland could never have been an option, as he would have been on the bench.

Perez said: “The Mbappe deal didn’t create any problem with Haaland deal, absolutely. We have Benzema, so it was impossible to have him with Karim

“We can’t sign Haaland to stay on the bench. Haaland is an amazing, fantastic player. I don’t know if Erling Haaland has a release clause into his contract with Man City…

“I’ve seen some stories about it but I don’t have anything confirmed. He’s a great player but we have Benzema. It wasn’t linked to Mbappe.”

These Florentino Perez’s comments were shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters.
