On the eve of the second leg of the 1/8 round of the UEFA Champions League of Man City, coach Pep Guardiola had a few emotional words to his student Erling Haaland.
Although he only joined Man City last summer, Erling Haaland is showing a “destructive” scoring form.
In the Premier League alone this season, the Norwegian superstar is dominating the top scorer chart with 28 goals after only 26 matches. He left the pursuer Mohamed Salah to 8 goals. In all arenas, the 22-year-old striker’s achievement is also great with 34 goals for Citizens.
Of course, coach Pep Guardiola is very satisfied with the achievement that the former Dortmund striker can do. However, he also understands that Haaland’s excellence means he will attract a lot of great teams around the world.
Most recently, before the match against RB Leipzig in the second leg of the 1/8 round of the European Cup, the Spanish strategist had emotional shares with his beloved pupil:
“What I want as we come to the end of this wonderful time together is for Erling Haaland to be able to improve as a team with the other players.
It’s not just about scoring goals. He needs to learn how to make everyone who plays with him better. One day, he will understand that he himself can burn the net.”
At the same time, the former Barcelona captain also expressed his belief in the striker born in 2000:
“I’m happy because he always thinks positively. Haaland can miss one, two and a lot of chances. But then he will score again. That’s the incredible quality of a player. good player”.
Currently, there is information that PSG and Real Madrid are looking to recruit Erling Haaland to serve their ambition to strengthen their strength. However, this deal is likely to happen only in the summer of 2024, when the contract release of the Norwegian striker and Man City begins to be worth 200 million pounds.
