Last night, Manchester City moved a step closer to another treble, thanks to the formidable Erling Haaland.

If City do win the lot - again - could he start to think about a fresh challenge?

There’s always been a suspicion that Haaland will one day join Real Madrid.

But is a move now less likely with the potential arrival of Kylian Mbappe?

Or is Madrid the only realistic next destination for Haaland... if anywhere at all?
