The Athletic claim Chelsea are prepared to make Haaland their most expensive transfer in history – eclipsing the £71.6m paid for Kepa Arrizabalaga in 2018.
The 20-year-old talent has a £66.6m release clause in his contract which cannot be triggered until the end of the 2021-22 campaign.
But the Blues intend to make an approach this coming summer to pip their rivals to his coveted signature.
And there are no shortage of challengers.
Real Madrid are the current favourites at 3/1 as Zinedine Zidane looks to bolster his attacking options.

The Frenchman is still relying on 33-year-old veteran Karim Benzema while Luka Jovic’s long-term future looks in doubt having completed a loan move back to Frankfurt.
Manchester United are the Premier League favourites to be Haaland’s next destination at 4/1 with Betfair.
The Red Devils were tipped to sign the former Red Bull Salzburg attacker before he opted to continue his development with Bundesliga giants Dortmund instead.
Ronald Koeman’s Barcelona are further back at 8/1 with Liverpool the outsiders of the bunch at 10s.
There’s no mention of Manchester City in Betfair’s list of potential destinations.
But they’re likely to make an appearance soon after reports manager Pep Guardiola will be given a £200m cash injection this summer.
On the Spaniard’s wishlist to replace Sergio Aguero are two strikers, Haaland and Inter Milan star Romelu Lukaku.
Haaland has an incredible record at Dortmund, scoring 35 goals and providing six assists in 35 appearances.
Chelsea fans might be buoyed by the fact Haaland once named Frank Lampard as the one retired player he would most like to have played alongside.
