Erling Haaland triggered a swift apology from Sky Sports as he swore live on TV in the midst of Manchester City's title celebrations.
Pep Guardiola's side celebrated their third domestic title in a row on Sunday evening in what was their final home game of the campaign. After overcoming Chelsea 1-0 thanks to Julian Alvarez's strike, they were presented with the trophy and given the chance to toast their latest success with their supporters.
It was certainly a special afternoon for Haaland as he celebrated his first title after what has been a stunning debut campaign in England. He let the emotions get the better of him as he gatecrashed Sky Sports' live interview with teammate Jack Grealish.
The Norwegian hitman was pictured invading the shot and embracing Grealish. He then said: " I f***ing love you, you know that?"
Presenter Dave Jones was then very quick to issue an apology for the language. It appears that Grealish shared his teammates' thoughts though as he hailed Haaland and the relationship he shares with the former Borussia Dortmund star.
"We’ve got a great relationship," Grealish said. "We come into training a lot together, we live in the same building, I’ve assisted him a few times. When you have a relationship like that off the pitch, on the pitch it makes it that much easier."

Haaland has been pivotal to City's title success this term and looks destined to claim the Golden Boot. The striker has 36 Premier League goals to his name.
When asked to give his thoughts on the campaign in a later interview, he was slightly better behaved. "These are memories I will remember for the rest of my life," Haaland said.
"We’ve been fighting so hard and honestly I don't know what to say - I didn’t plan anything to say! It’s special. I’m just gonna enjoy this day. This is a so special moment with the trophy and all the players and the whole club. Without the club and my teammates, it would not be possible. Amazing."
He added: " Debut season, 36 goals so far, Premier League trophy and two finals left - not a bad start."
Haaland and the rest of his Man City teammates still have time to make sure their season can be even more special with an historic treble within their reach. The side take on fierce rivals Manchester United in the FA Cup final before the end of the domestic season.
They then have the chance to win the Champions League for the first time in the club's history. City tackle Italian giants Inter Milan in the final in Istanbul next month.
