His agent, Mino Raiola, told The Athletic this week that his client is already good enough to play for any side in world football.
“With Haaland, everybody was wrong,” Raiola said. “He did things much quicker than everybody imagined.
“Haaland is in front of his own development. He is ahead of his own schedule.
“Maybe I was too careful when I said, ‘Oh no, let’s move to Dortmund instead of I-don’t-know-where’.
“This boy – I’m 100 per cent convinced and everybody’s convinced – can move to any club, wherever he wants, already on this level. And he could have done that last year.”
