Man City could suffer transfer blow for £130m-rated man in January – opinion

We know Manchester City need a striker to replace Sergio Aguero in 2021 and we know Erling Haaland would be a brilliant option.

But despite Eurosport saying we’ll make a fresh enquiry when the winter transfer window opens, I don’t think we’ll land his signature in January.

There’s no doubt Haaland is one of the best strikers in Europe.

The 20-year-old scored 20 goals with six assists in 50 games for Molde FK (February 2017 – January 2019), 29 goals with seven assists in 27 games for Red Bull Salzburg (January 2019 – January 2020), 27 goals with six assists in 29 games for Borussia Dortmund (January 2020 – present) and six goals with one assist in seven games for Norway (September 2019 – present).
