Manchester City are reportedly ready to activate the release clause of Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Braut Haaland.
With the figure standing in the region of £63m, a number of top European clubs are seemingly prepared to bring in the Norway international this summer.
However, according to Sky Sports News, City are seemingly prepared to make the first formal move, activating that option to set the wheels in motion.
A further report has claimed that the Premier League leaders are prepared to hand the 21-year-old a contract worth £500,000 per week until 2027.
The alleged development leaves the likes of Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain having to contemplate their next move, one of their pair standing to miss out when Kylian Mbappe makes a decision on his future.
Despite enduring an injury-hit campaign, Haaland has still managed to contribute 25 goals from his 26 appearances in all competitions.
