Chelsea, Man City alerted as Haaland drops BVB 'pressure' bombshell

Erling Haaland has clashed with Borussia Dortmund over his career plans.

With Chelsea and Real Madrid keen, the Norway striker admits he is feeling 'pressured' by the board to make a decision about next season.

After scoring twice in victory over Freiburg last night, Haaland said: "For the past six months, I have chosen not to say anything out of respect for Dortmund. But now the club has started to pressure me to make a decision - but all I want to do is play football. But they pressure me to make a decision about my future.

"So that means I have to make a decision soon."

In response, BVB chief Hans-Joachim Watzke later declared: "He is a spontaneous person. He can do it. There are no problems with Erling. But he must also have some understanding of our situation.

"We can not wait until the end of May."
