PICTURED: Erling Haaland's father Alfie and agent Mino Raiola land in Barcelona, and are picked up by Joan Laporta's assistant, for talks over £154m move as Catalans bid to get ahead of the chasing pack after Raiola 'declared war' on Dortmund

Erling Haaland's agent Mino Raiola and his father Alf-Inge have arrived in Barcelona this morning amid speculation the Borussia Dortmund striker could join the Catalan giants this summer.

Haaland is one of the most sought-after players in Europe, having scored 49 goals in as many games since arriving from RB Salzburg last January, with Manchester United, City and Chelsea all interested in the 20-year-old.

But Barcelona's new president Joan Laporta seems to have stolen a march on his competitors as his assistant picked up Haaland's agent and father from the airport on Thursday morning for talks over £154million move.
