'We are a football club, not a bank!' - Erling Haaland to PSG rumours shut down by Dortmund director Zorc amid talk of €200m bid.

Borussia Dortmund once again confirms that they have no plans to sell Erling Haaland this season. Dortmund director Michael Zorc has shut down rumours linking Haaland to Paris Saint-Germain. There have been rumoured reports regarding PSG submitting a €200 million (£171m/$236m) bid for the Norwegian star.

It is not new that Erling Braut Haaland has been the centre of attraction in European football for some time now. European giants like Manchester City, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester United have shown interest in the youngster. However, Dortmund has made it clear from the start they are not releasing Haaland at least for the time being.

PSG are the latest club to enter the ring. However, their interest is legit as Kylian Mbappe might be on his way to Madrid. So, they need to find his replacement. On the other hand, Michael Zorc is very clear on his stand. Moreover, he said the same to Kicker, and his intentions are not changing any time soon.

"We are a football club, not a bank! Our position is very clear and did not change. I assume that we will now be confronted with wild rumours for another two days. Our position is clear, I don't need to play the parrot all the time."
