Erling Haaland "determined" to sink Borussia Dortmund ahead of Champions League reunion

Erling Haaland was handed an instant reunion with former club Borussia Dortmund as Manchester City drew them in the Champions League.

Haaland joined City from Dortmund for £51million in the summer and has made an immediate impact for Pep Guardiola's side, plundering three goals in as many Premier League games. The Norway striker has a phenomenal record in the Champions League having scored 23 goals in 19 appearances, with the 22-year-old looking to open his City account in the tournament.

In 2021, Haaland became the youngest and fastest player to reach 20 Champions League goals, taking just 14 games to do so in European football's elite club competition. In three seasons at Dortmund, Haaland scored 86 goals in 89 games, and his former club will be only too aware of the threat he poses to them when they come up against him.
