The 21-year-old Norwegian sensation Erling Haaland can be one of the biggest moves in the forthcoming summer transfer window. While many top reputed clubs are targeting the Borussia Dortmund striker very strongly, the English Premier League club Manchester City are reportedly dreaming to win the battle.
According to the Spanish national daily sport newspaper Marca, Manchester City are very keen to add Erling Haaland soon to their squad. Spanish football manager Pep Guardiola is one of the biggest reasons for this latest development as the two-time UEFA Champions League winning manager is now guiding Manchester City to win their first UCL title this season.

As Guardiola is one of the best managers in the present football world, the Spanish daily is claiming that Halaand wants to train under him.
One of the biggest issues in this deal can be Guardiola's latest contract, as the Spanish coach will end this contract with the Sky Blues in June 2023. While Haaland reportedly wants Guardiola for more than a season, recently the British tabloid newspaper the Sun has claimed that Guardiola has agreed to extend his contract with this Premier League club till 2025.
Manchester City are reportedly fighting with the Spanish giants Real Madrid and German giants Bayern Munich in the battle of signing the Norwegian sensation.
