Erling Haaland was on English soil on Tuesday night. The striker, who has been linked with a summer transfer to Chelsea as well as Manchester United and Real Madrid, lead the line for Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League quarter-final first-leg tie against Man City.
Pep Guardiola’s side are another side rumored to be interested in the 20-year-old, although the Spaniard has done his very best to play down any talk of a move.
“Spending a lot of money on one player doesn’t give you an advantage to win,” Guardiola said.
“Football is a team game, everyone makes a contribution.
“Competitions are not won by one player, it is every player. So far the club has decided not to spend close to £100million for a player.

It remains to be seen which club manages to capture Haaland’s signature in the future, but it would appear Champions League football must be on the table.
Prior to kick-off at the Etihad Stadium, the Norway international was spotted singing along to the famous Champions League anthem.
