Man City star is praised by Klopp as “an fantastic footballer”
Erling Haaland of Manchester City has been praised by Jurgen Klopp, the manager of Liverpool, as an amazing player.
Since coming at the Etihad Stadium earlier this summer, Haaland, according to Klopp, has bolstered Pep Guardiola’s team.
Haaland paid a $51 million initial transfer fee to move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City.
For Man City this year, the 22-year-old attacker has been a revelation.
The Norwegian has scored a staggering 12 goals and provided one assist in eight games for the Premier League champions across all competitions.
In an interview with Sport 1, Klopp stated: “Haaland is an excellent footballer and they have undoubtedly become stronger as a result of him. You just need to be aware that the team needs to be reorganized occasionally — Pep [Guardiola] sees this just as much as I do. We also added players while losing one [Sadio Mane] , who played nearly every game. The process will take time.
“That applies to City as well as to us,” he continued. But it’s difficult to avoid scoring goals when you observe how City plays, how the balls enter the penalty area, and how Erling occupies the proper spaces. even very many. However, City are in far more of a transition than we are and have also lost a lot of players.
