Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes believes Erling Haaland could join Barcelona if he leaves Manchester City, although he also sees the Norwegian striker fitting in at Real Madrid.
Speaking on the podcast 'The Good, The Bad & The Football', Scholes named Barcelona as his predicted destination when asked where Haaland might go if City were relegated from the Premier League.
"I can imagine him in a Real Madrid shirt, but I think he will go to Barcelona," Scholes said.
City are facing financial rule breach allegations, with the club appealing an independent commission's verdict delivered on September 29, 2026.
Haaland, however, remains under contract with City until June 2034, having signed a new deal in January 2025, making any potential transfer difficult.
