Erling Haaland breaks silence on Borussia Dortmund future

The Norwegian striker has enjoyed a meteoric rise in football over the past two years and capped off a memorable campaign with Dortmund by netting 41 goals and 41 appearances.

That form has reportedly attracted interest from a number of Europe's top clubs, but Haaland says he will respect his Dortmund contract.

"Well, I have a contract for a couple more years, so I am respectful towards my contract," he told Norwegian broadcaster NENT.

The 20-year-old insists it was vital to secure UEFA Champions League football for next season.

"Like I have said before, I am a big fan of the Champions League - and I think everybody knows that. It was a relief to secure that spot. It was really important," he added.

"I am a simple guy. When I like something I just want to have more. Like I have said before, when I score a goal, I always chase the next goal. I have big dreams.

"I just won my first major trophy and it was a great feeling, so I want to win trophies."
