If the Millionaires do not let the Norwegian go during the next transfer window, Italian agent will sell Haaland to the arch-rivals
Norwegian young star, who scored 37 times in 38 matches this season, is one of the most wanted footballers at the moment. No team in the world would refuse having his services on the pitch.
Haaland has an alleged transfer release clause up to 13 billion KSH, but it doesn't come into play until 2022.
With Borussia Dortmund recent form, the club could miss out on Champions League football next season. Even though there are a lot of rumours saying that qualifying to Champions League is one of the conditions in the contract - according to ESPN, there's nothing in his the document itself that such scenario could trigger Haaland's move in 2021.
However, other sources report, specifically Leah Smith of Caught Offside, that Mino Raiola is threatening Dortmund with selling his client to Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich next summer if Haaland isn't given a green light to leave this year.
Mino Raiola is currently negotiating with Borussia Dortmund and warning that if they do not allow Erling Haaland to leave this summer, he'll ensure the player moves to Bayern Munich in 2022 - a direct domestic rival.

Raiola wants Haaland out of Dortmund asap.
Bayern are famous for snatching their rivals' best players. They already did it with Dortmund in the past (Mats Hummels, Mario Gotze and Robert Lewandowski) and they are also doing it this year with signing RB Leipzig's manager Julian Nagelsmann and centre back Dayot Upamecano.
Teaming up Lewandowski and Haaland is the last thing Dortmund would like to see but the Bavarians could trigger Norwegian's release clause next summer. Again, so could any other big club.

Italian 'super agent' Raiola obviously has a lot of influence on where the young striker will continue his career. And so does Erling's father, ex-Man City player Alf Inge Haaland.
Spanish giants, Real Madrid and Barcelona, alongside with the Premier League trio Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea - have all been monitoring the situation around the incredible forward.
A low blow by the agent towards Borussia. Most of the public says Raiola is an enemy of football and has no sportsman-like code, but whatever the public thinks, his clients for sure can say he devotes himself to getting the best possible deal.
