Chelsea target Haaland eager to work with new Borussia Dortmund signing Malen

Erling Haaland has hinted he's ready to stay with Borussia Dortmund this season.

Chelsea have made Haaland their top transfer target this summer and are considering a staggering £135million offer, with reports claiming a players-plus-cash offer has been rejected.

However, the star striker remains focused on Dortmund and is looking forward to working with the club's newest addition Donyell Malen.

The Norway international joked that he will get "mad" at Malen if he doesn't give him a lot of assists this coming season.

Haaland said: "I told him to give me a lot of assists, otherwise I'll get mad at him.

"I hope we will play together in the offence. He's here to make a difference.

"He has to bring a positive energy and deliver from the first minute because BVB is a big club."

This comes after Haaland admitted he hopes reports linking him with a move to Chelsea are 'just rumours'.
