      And by doing so he became the first under-21 to score 40 goals in a season in one of Europe’s big five leagues since the iconic Brazilian for Barcelona in 1996-97.
      Haaland is just 20 and is one of the brightest young talents in the world.
      And he added another feather to his cap on the last day of the Bundesliga season.
      Manchester United and Chelsea target Haaland got on the end of a simple pass from Reinier after five minutes and smashed it through Lukáš Hrádecký’s legs.
      Marco Reus doubled Dortmund’s lead on 51 minutes before Haaland rounded the keeper to slot into an empty net with six minutes to go having pounced on Wendell’s loose pass.
      Lars Bender scored an 89th minute consolation penalty for the visitors as Dortmund won 3-1 and finished third in the league but focus was on Haaland’s record equalling strike.
      Not since 1997-98 has a player under-21 scored 40 goals in a season.
      Ronaldo was one of the greatest footballers of all time and he managed a staggering 47 from 49 games for Barca in 96-97.

      The first strike was Haaland’s 26th in 28 Bundesliga games – taking his tally to 27 with his second and 41 in all competitions.
      He bagged 10 in eight Champions League showings and three from four games in the German Cup. And the other solitary strike came in the German Super Cup back in September.
      Former RB Salzburg man Haaland is a target for Man Utd and Chelsea but Dortmund are confident he will NOT leave this summer in a huge blow to the Premier League giants.
      Both could be forced to wait until next summer when his £65millon release clause becomes active.
      Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke told Bild: “I have the clear expectation that Erling Haaland will play for us next year.
      “And I am not worried about anything else. I am totally relaxed.”

      by

      TEARS streamed down David Alaba’s face when team-mates handed the legend a goodbye video ahead of his final Bayern Munich game.The Austria defender nodded his head wistfully, wiped his eyes and put his head into his hands as 13 glittering years with the German giants come to an end before a probable move to Real Madrid.

      Real have reportedly beaten clubs like Chelsea, Manchester City and PSG to sign the 28-year-old.
      But before his contract runs out Alaba faces a Bundesliga swansong when champs Bayern host Augsburg on Saturday.
      And although a five-year Real deal is thought to await him, he looked overcome with emotion as he reflected on his stint in Germany. 
      Bayern handed him a documentary, with reflections and greetings from fans and club-mates.
      And on seeing the pictures Alaba sobbed, perhaps in recognition of the enormity of the bonds he has built, the achievements he has earned and the decision he has made to leave.
      Bayern posted Alaba’s tearful response on Instagram – drawing more praise and gratitude from his admirers.

      Man Utd transfer target Jadon Sancho ‘WILL be able leave for £86m but club face competition with Chelsea in open race’

      by

      BORUSSIA DORTMUND star Jadon Sancho will be allowed to leave the club for under £86million this summer, according to reports.And Manchester United and Chelsea are set to battle it out in an ‘open race’ for the England winger.

      The Red Devils were desperate to land Sancho last summer.
      But Dortmund’s previous asking price of £117million proved to be more than United were willing to pay.
      This time around, however, Fabrizio Romano reports that the German side’s position is ‘clear’ – that they will sell for a ‘bit less’ than £86m.
      Man United and Chelsea are both keen on signing the 21-year-old, but no offers or talks have yet taken place.
      SunSport exclusively revealed earlier this week that the Blues are ready to launch an £80m bid for Sancho in the summer ahead.
      Boss Thomas Tuchel is a big fan of Dortmund’s No7, and would love to work with him at Stamford Bridge.
      Sancho grew up supporting Chelsea, and would enjoy a return to England to be closer to family and friends.
      Following last year’s blistering campaign, Sancho had a comparatively slow start to this season.

      But things have picked up for the former Manchester City ace.
      Sancho has now scored 16 goals and assisted a further 21 efforts in all competitions.
      And two of his strikes came in the recent DFB Pokal final, with Dortmund’s 4-1 win over RB Leipzig securing Sancho’s biggest trophy success to date.

      The 21-year-old is set to quit Borussia Dortmund this summer and has his heart set on a return to the Premier League.
      Sancho was eyed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side last year but his £117m price tag proved too high.
      SunSport understands Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is a huge fan of the Three Lions wideman.
      The German wants to focus on having a strong finish to the season before eyeing transfers.
      But Stamford Bridge chiefs are then expected to make a serious move for the former Manchester City academy kid.
      Sancho is a boyhood Blues fan and it is believed he wants a return to the UK to be closer to family and friends.
      The London-born ace hopes to be in England’s Euros squad.
      Dortmund are banking on him having a good tournament to push his transfer fee up to around the £100m mark.

      Sancho had a slow start to the season but has turned his fortunes around since the New Year.
      His run of form saw him score eight goals with 13 assists as part of a deadly duo with Erlind Haaland.
      Haaland, 20, is also the subject of heavy transfer interest with a host of Europe’s elite monitoring his situation.

      And, according to website 90min, Blades attacker Jebbison is next on their wish list.
      The 6ft 3in forward turns 18 in July but has already made his top-flight debut.
      In the 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace earlier this month, interim boss Paul Heckingbottom handed him a first league runout.
      Jebbison was born in Canada and moved to Sheffield in 2018 before making his England Under-18 debut in March, having qualified through his family heritage.
      Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea and Everton are all said to be monitoring the youngster.
      He could even make a second Prem appearance against the Toffees in United’s trip to Goodison Park on Sunday night.
      Blades boss Heckingbottom opened the door to more involvement after handing Jebbison his debut against Palace.
      He said: “The biggest thing is that you notice him when he’s on the pitch. His size, his athleticism and his work ethic makes you do that.

      “He’s got a work ethic to stretch the game, he’s got a work ethic to try and get behind.
      “And when the ball is coming into the box, he’s got a real desire to try and get on the end of it.
      “It’s no secret that we’ve struggled to score goals this season.”
