They claim Chelsea have now agreed personal terms with Haaland and now just need to agree a fee with Dortmund. Haaland has been previously stated to be open to a move to west London.
The personal terms are ‘a lot more’ than what has been reported previously.
However, the Champions League winners are still struggling to agree a fee with the Bundesliga side having had their latest advances, which included a player exchange, knocked back.
Blues boss Thomas Tuchel is actively searching for a striker to complete his attack ahead of a Premier League title push.
Dortmund are believed to want over £150 million if they are to be convinced to sell Haaland this summer instead of next. It’s now left to Chelsea to smash their club-record fee if they want to finalise a deal for the prolific forward in the summer transfer window.
