Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero hinted that some time passed before the star of the Norwegian team, Erling Haaland, got used to English football, following his lackluster performance in the Community Shield Cup, which went to runner-up Liverpool.
Aguero, who scored 259 goals in 388 games in the “Citizens” shirt, said regarding the Borussia Dortmund star, who scored 62 goals in 67 games with the German club: “Haaland used to play in Germany and thought that he would be left unattended, then Virgil van Dijk came to him and said to him, “Welcome to you.” Premier League”.
And regarding Julian Alvarez, who came from Argentine River Plate, who scored City’s only goal in the match, Aguero said: “Julian sent me a message asking me regarding the nature of life in Manchester, and I told him that you will feel very cold.”
Aguero criticized the sale of his former partner, England striker Raheem Sterling, to Chelsea for 50 million pounds, and said: “I do not understand the sale of Sterling.”
Aguero, who retired due to heart disease, scored 23 goals in his first season with the team in 2011, the same number of goals Haaland scored in the Champions League with Dortmund and Red Bull Salzburg.
City fans are waiting for Halland, 22, to follow in Aguero’s footsteps, following he opened the scoring 12 minutes following his first appearance once morest Bayern Munich, forgetting that Halland used to play once morest the rival in the Bundesliga and that the opponents in England are completely different.
Haaland relies on his Lebanese personal trainer, John Haddad, and trains with him extensively at the Marbella Football Center in the summer on the sidelines of a family vacation in the family-owned vacation home on the Spanish Costa del Sol. Haaland’s finances are run by former Southampton striker Egil Ostensad, who turned banker.
Haaland practices yoga and interrupts the technique for two hours before bed, and wears orange-tinged blue-tinged glasses as soon as the sun goes down to help him get a good night’s sleep.
Norway coach Solbakan believes that Haaland can defend as well, adding: “I made his defensive duties very real and exclusive, we didn’t let him attack just because the team didn’t defend enough with 10 men. Very fast and I always tell him that his advantage over the opponent’s defenders and the goalkeeper by a few yards makes the difference, and he rarely falls into the offside trap. We have Olympic champions in the 1500m and 5,000m but it is fair to say that Haaland is the most popular athlete in Norway right now. We treat him normally and he loves it. We know the eyes are on him and we try not to be a circus star, sometimes I feel like he wants to be like his icon Zlatan Ibrahimovic, cool and controlling but everyone loves him in the locker room. What I love regarding him is that he measures his performance with goals, but he also enjoys the decisive passes.”
Haaland gifted a Rolex watch (worth £5,000) to every Dortmund player and employee when he bid farewell to Dortmund last May and befriended City chefs because he eats like a “monster” and City fans hope he is equally hungry for goals.
