Erling Haaland's controversial agent Mino Raiola and the player's father have reportedly travelled to FC Barcelona for crunch talks regarding a potential mega transfer.
The Borussia Dortmund striker is one of the hottest properties in the transfer market, with the likes of Manchester City, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Barcelona all linked with a potential swoop for his services.
Los Blancos and Pep Guardiola's City were considered by many to be the favourites to snap up the 20-year-old, but new Barca president Joan Laporta has seemingly thrown his hat in the ring.
Throughout his election campaign, he indicated that he wanted to use his good relationship with Raiola to try to sign the Norway forward for the Blaugrana if he were elected.
It now seems those were not empty words as Raiola and the striker's father Alf-Inge Haaland were pictured arriving in Barcelona on Thursday to meet with the Catalan giants' new president, according to Sport.
Dortmund, meanwhile, are understood to not be keen to sell their star forward, but the player could force an exit if the Bundesliga side fails to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League.
The BVB bosses are understood to have set an asking price of €180 million (R3 billion) for their star asset, while a clause in his contract reportedly allows him to leave for a fee of about €75 million (R1.29 billion) in 2022.
Haaland has netted 49 goals in 49 appearances since joining Dortmund in January 2020.
