His agent Raiola believes Haaland can succeed the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic to become one of the next big superstars of world football.
So despite the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic, he is predicting all the top clubs will be circling for the 20-year-old.
Raiola told the BBC: “It’s obvious there are only a maximum of ten clubs that can afford to buy him.
“We can fill in four of those clubs – and four of those clubs are in England. You can call them and say ‘would you be interested?’
“There is not a sporting director or trainer in the world that would say he would be not be interested.
“It’s like saying: ‘Is there a Formula 1 team who would not be interested in having Lewis Hamilton?'”
With Messi, Ronaldo and Ibra all well into their thirties, they will soon be coming to the end of their careers at the top.
And Raiola said: “It is obvious that everybody is looking at Erling as one of those potential new future stars.

“It’s so difficult to do what he does at his age, at this level. He will be one of the future stars for the next decade.
“We see people like Ibrahimovic, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi coming to a certain age. How long can we still enjoy them?
“So everyone is looking for the new generation.”
