Erling Haaland's agent Mino Raiola has provided another major hint at his star client's future amid Barcelona link-ups.
For obvious reasons, Borussia Dortmund goal machine Erling Haaland has become one of the most highly coveted players ahead of the January transfer window. Among the clubs constantly being linked to his name is La Liga side Barcelona.
It has been publicly known that Barca is currently dealing with the financial woes caused by the pandemic and swooping in for an expensive player like Haaland will not be like a walk in the park.

“Could [Erling] Haaland wait for Barcelona? He can wait for anybody,” Raiola said via Marca. “We don’t have a pre-agreement with any club. We’ll look for the best option for him and I can’t rule out another year at Dortmund. Theoretically, that’s still possible.”
“Barcelona will always be one of the world’s biggest clubs,” he added. “Even despite their current situation. In a year or two they’ll be back. They have the power to find great economic agreements. They’ll only need a year or two to get back.”
This wasn't the first time Raiola teased about Haaland's possible move to either Barcelona or Real Madrid. Last month, the super agent already claimed that Haaland “really likes his home in Spain,” suggesting that La Liga could be the youngster's next destination.
