Borussia Dortmund manager Marco Rose is bullish about Erling Haaland's chances of staying with the club beyond the current season, dismissing talk of his departure as gossip.
Haaland was set to become one of the biggest transfer sagas of the summer after his agent Mino Raiola and father, Alf-Inge, visited some of the biggest clubs in Europe earlier this year to discuss the 21-year-old's potential transfer.
In fact, speculation about the superstar striker continues apace after Dortmund legend Michael Rummenigge tipped Haaland to leave for Liverpool earlier this week.
