MANCHESTER CITY has been urged to snap up Erling Haaland by Shaun Wright-Phillips. Shaun Wright-Phillips has advised Manchester City to close a deal for Erling Haaland, with the former City star claiming that the striking prowess is “perfect” for his old club. Manchester City is just one of many European giants, including Manchester United and Chelsea, who want to buy Haaland in the summer.
In the summer, Guardiola’s side is expected to buy a world-class striker, whether they retain their Premier League title. The Premier League champions currently hold a one-point lead over Liverpool ahead of their crunch clash on Sunday, with City aiming to clinch their fourth title in five years.
But City has led the pack without an orthodox striker after failing to seal a deal for Harry Kane last summer. The England captain was earmarked for a mega-money move to the Etihad after admitting that he wanted to quit Tottenham, but City couldn’t strike a deal with Spurs’ supremo Daniel Levy.
