'Always been looking' - Kevin De Bruyne fires Erling Haaland warning to Liverpool and Premier League

Kevin De Bruyne has warned Erling Haaland could help take Manchester City to the next level as a team and expects the Norwegian to be a great success at the Etihad Stadium.

Pep Guardiola's side confirmed the signing of Haaland from Borussia Dortmund last month, fending off interest from a host of European sides to strike a deal. City were able to beat Liverpool to the Premier League title this season without a recognised striker leading the line for much of the campaign and have long been in the market for a player of this calibre for some time.

Many believe the arrival of the talented 21-year-old makes the Sky Blues firm favourites to retain the top-flight title next term, with Haaland a player whose goalscoring record in recent years speaks for itself. He scored 29 times in 27 outings for RB Salzburg, followed up by 86 goals in 89 appearances at Dortmund.
