Barcelona are keeping a close eye on Erling Haaland but sources have told ESPN FC that they consider the €100 million price tag for the FC Salzburg striker to be excessive.
The Spanish champions, along with a significant number of Europe's biggest clubs, have been impressed by Haaland's performances this season, especially in the Champions League.
He scored his fifth hat trick of the season at the weekend against Wolfsberger and has now scored 26 goals in 18 appearances in all competitions – including seven in four Champions League outings. A number of Premier League sides, as well as Real Madrid and Juventus, have also been linked with him.
However, sources at Barca say the price they have been quoted by Salzburg is "disproportionate" and "not in line with his market value." The sources add that, unless the Austrian side dramatically reduce what they're asking for, the Catalan club would not be willing to break the bank for the Norway international.
Haaland, 19, has a contract with Salzburg until 2023 and it does not include a release clause. (ESPN)
