Haaland, in response to his criticism of Dortmund: I said everything
Norwegian top scorer Erling Haaland defended his criticism of his team, Borussia Dortmund, after he felt that the German club was pressuring him to decide his future.
"I really don't want to talk about it, for me it was time to say something," Haaland told Sky Sports and the Norwegian portal Viaplay.
"It's been a long time since I talked, but for me I said everything," he added.
Haaland said earlier this month that Dortmund wanted to know his plan after the end of the season, but he wanted to focus on the following matches only. A penalty in his contract worth 75 million euros (86 million dollars) allows him to leave the German club at the end of the current season.
But there are a few clubs that can pay this financial value in light of the negative effects on the economic side caused by the Corona pandemic crisis.
Dortmund chief executive Hans-Joachim Watzke confirmed that the problem between the club and the player had been settled and that no deadline had been given to Haaland, who is currently absent due to a minor muscle injury.
"Things are looking good, I am training again and very well, I will be back soon," Haaland said.
