To me, i see the Haaland situation as Dortmund refusing to sell up 2 core squad members in the same summer; it is not about the money involved, or the release clause in Haaland contract. It is about keeping the Dortmund squad competitive ahead of a new season.

On the other hand, the Player himself has shown no signs of wanting to leave, and ofcourse not to London. Dortmund would earn huge bucks from Haaland departure; either this summer or next summer
It is true that Haaland doesn't appear on rush to quit Dortmund as Mbappe on PSG but that doesn't mean that he wants to stay there until 2024 imo.
Dortmund is known to farm good players, I mean they pick future top players, make them stars then sell them and so on. They want to compete in European leagues, they want to have the Bundesliga title but they aren't spending a lot to do it.

After Brentford in England, Dortmund is another team that i cherish their business model; they run the club properly and competitively on or off the pitch; with set targets in place for every transfer window, as well as a tailored replacements for players too. MY predicition though is an Haaland move to Manchester United in the 2022 summer; while Mbappe gets his dream move to Real Madrid
Dortmund's business modus operandi is always very good but the rate at which they sell their best players every season is what I don't like.Every season Dortmund must sell their very best players to one of their biggest rival,which ends up affecting them.When these players leave,they always replace them well which is makes me think the club is really a business club.

I guess the rate or speed at which they sell their best players is also what Dortmund doesn't like, but do they have any choice? If you get an offer over 150 million in total for Ousmane Dembele, what the hell are you going to do as a club that is financially healthy, but far from being healthy as Bayern Munich? You have to sell. Dortmund does an outstanding job in recruiting young players and turning them into world stars, but they just can't pay the 20 million that Bayern can pay per year or clubs like Barcelona or Madrid, Paris or City.
