Barcelona vice-president Rafa Yuste has played down the prospect of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland moving to the Nou Camp.

Yuste is keen on taking a more careful approach when it comes to the transfer market, alluding to Barcelona's economic troubles caused by the previous presidency under Josep Maria Bartomeu.

"I prefer to be governed by the principle of prudence. We come from a situation of a huge economic crisis, therefore prudence," Yuste told Mundo Deportivo.

"I do not see Haaland [signing] happening now. From now to next year we will see what the situation is and what we can do in terms of signings.

"First we have to lay the foundations of a house that we have found in ruins, so let's focus first on fortifying it.

"Let's feed those at home first and then we'll see what else we can do, without losing sight of the fact that we always want to have the best, and Haaland is one of the best in the world."
