Barcelona is preparing to strengthen their attack in the upcoming transfer window after Robert Lewandowski's departure. Julián Álvarez is currently their leading target, yet President Joan Laporta and many within the club are big fans of Erling Haaland.

According to Spanish media, Haaland's father, Alfie Haaland, was asked by DAZN about a potential move to Real Madrid and did not close the door on Barcelona either. He said, "Erling is very happy at Manchester City right now. He has a long contract. We are waiting for the new season, but anyone would want to play for Real Madrid and play in the Champions League. Maybe he will play in Spain, there is always a chance in football. In Spain, there are fantastic clubs. You never know, but at the moment he is happy in England."

Currently, the chances of signing Haaland are very slim: Manchester City has no intention of selling him, and the player himself is content at the club. However, this could change in the coming years if Haaland seeks a new challenge. Should that happen, Spain would be his likely destination, with a possible competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid for his signature.

Barcelona continues to view Haaland as a potential forward option but is focused on securing Julián Álvarez in the short term.
