Pep Guardiola has been asked about Erling Haaland’s likely move to Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola slipped a few words on the probable arrival ofErling Haalandwhich should be formalized by Manchester City this week.
“Everyone knows the situation, I shouldn’t talk because I don’t like talking about the future or next season, confided the Spanish manager at a press conference. Dortmund and Man City told me that I was not allowed to say anything until it was completely over. We will have time to talk. »
Guardiola was asked about another topic, about what a pure centre-forward like Haaland could bring to a side that regularly plays without a No.9, yet has scored 140 goals this season. “New players always help me to try to be stronger, I trusted Guardiola. But it’s not a good defender who will solve all defensive problems and it’s not a good striker who will solve all finishing problems. It’s been like that since day one, apart from a period at the start of the season, we score a lot of goals and concede few. »
« The club must always have a vision for the future. The decisions that the club takes, I am always aware of and I support them 100%”added the Skyblues boss.
