Dortmund draw up four-man shortlist to replace Erling Haaland in hint striker has agreed Man City transfer
BORUSSIA DORTMUND are reportedly already thinking of life after Erling Haaland having drawn up a four-man shortlist to replace him.
The 21-year-old looks set to depart Signal Iduna Park in the summer with the striker available for just £64million due to a release clause in his contract.
SunSport understands that BVB fear the ex-Red Bull Salzburg ace will link up with Manchester City at the end of the season.
We told you last week how the Norway international was warming to the idea of following in his dad’s footsteps and joining the Citizens.
And it has even been reported that City are willing to make Haaland the highest-paid player in Premier League history with a £500,000-a-week contract.
With Haaland poised to leave, Dortmund are already planning to bring in his replacement.

According to Bild, BVB have four targets in mind, with West Ham flop Sebastien Haller one of those being eyed up.
The Ajax ace, who is also a target for Inter Milan, has been in inspired form for the Dutch giants this term.
Valued at around £25m, the 27-year-old has chipped in with 33 goals and nine assists in 35 games in all competitions this term.
It has also been stated that Dortmund are keeping tabs on Sparta Prague’s 19-year-old starlet Adam Hlozek.

With nine goals and 13 assists this season, a big move beckons for the Czech Republic international.
Hlozek’s compatriot Patrick Schick is another on BVB’s radar having banged in 20 Bundesliga goals for Bayer Leverkusen.
But his hefty £58m price tag is likely to put Marco Rose’s side off.
Stuttgart’s towering centre-forward Sasa Kalajdzic is also an option, with the 24-year-old seen as a cheaper alternative at between £12m-£16.7m.
