Real Madrid continue to be linked with interest in Erling Haaland<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n
Enrique Riquelme promised to sign Erling Haaland, but lost the election to become Real Madrid’s president. Florentino P\u00e9rez will have to look elsewhere to sign his next Galactico after winning the public vote and pledging to make a club-record transfer offer of at least \u00a3130m, with Bayern’s Michael Olise reportedly at the top of his target list.<\/p>\n
Riquelme initially insisted that Haaland “has a release clause and wants to join Real Madrid,” declaring: “If I become president, he will play for Real Madrid.” Manchester City insisted the story was “false”, explaining: “There is no possibility of something like this happening and there are no contractual clauses that would allow it to happen.”<\/p>\n
They added: “We are considering legal action against the use of player images in this context.” “All of this is very funny, but it is not true,” Haaland’s father Alf Inge and agent Raffaella Pimenta said in a joint statement.<\/p>\n
Mr Perez said before his re-election that Haaland was not in his mind for a potential offer of more than \u00a3130m. “Around Tuesday, we will be making offers to major clubs in the Champions League in search of great players,” he said.<\/p>\n
“This will be the highest transfer fee ever paid by Real Madrid.” He added: “(Michael) Oliseh is a great player, but he’s not Oliseh. He’s not Doc.<\/p>\n
“We will make an important offer of at least 150 metres. He needs to be a player who can come forward from midfield, and that’s not Haaland.”<\/p>\n
“The player is not from the Premier League and the first thing we will do is talk to the club. This is a deal that is meant to create excitement, because that is what creates excitement.”<\/p>\n
Mr Perez also ruled out it was Harry Kane. However, it is reported that Madrid will make an offer this week for the France international, despite having done the same for his Bayern Munich teammate Olise.<\/p>\n
However, the German champion is adamant that Olise is not for sale. The company’s president, Herbert Hainer, spoke to BILD following reports that a bid from Madrid was imminent this summer.<\/p>\n

Michael Oliseh is reported to be the player Real Madrid want to sign this summer, although manager Florentino Perez has denied this is the case.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
“Michael Olise is an FC Bayern M\u00fcnchen player who still has a long contract left, but we are not a selling club. If Florentino Perez wants to make us an offer – which he hasn’t done so far – he can protect himself.”<\/p>\n
Honorary president Uli Hoene\u00df also said of Madrid’s returning manager Jose Mourinho: “He can have five eyes on Olise, but he can’t have it. He remains unsold.”<\/p>\n
Bayern’s director Karl-Heinz Rummenigge shares a similar position. He said: “For a player like Oliseh, there is no price tag that would shock us.”<\/p>\n
