- Story Text: Borussia Dortmund have signed promising young striker Erling Haaland from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg on a four-and-a-half-year deal, the Bundesliga club said on Sunday (December 29).
The transfer fee was undisclosed but British media reported the German side paid the equivalent of about 18 million pounds ($23 million dollars) for the 19-year-old, who signed a deal until June 2024.
Haaland, 19, shot to fame this season when he scored 16 league goals and eight goals in the Champions League group stages -- second only to Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski's tally of 10. ($1 = 0.7646 pounds)
