Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer has dismissed speculation that Erling Haaland could be a target if Manchester City were to face relegation. Speaking to BILD, Hainer was asked if Bayern would sign the Norwegian striker if City were expelled from the Premier League due to their ongoing financial charges case. Hainer replied, "We have Kane, Olise, Diaz and more. We scored over 120 goals last season. So, I think we are very well equipped in attack."
The Bayern chief emphasized that the club currently does not require any additional forwards, boasting a strong attack with Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Luis Díaz already in place. However, Hainer did not completely rule out the possibility in the future. "If we're talking about the future in a few years, then there will be a new situation, and we'll see," he added.
Severe sanctions, including the potential relegation, are still under consideration pending any appeal. Journalist Gilbert Ekugbe reported on this story for Punch Newspapers.
