Erling Haaland has responded to a jibe made by Real Madrid president Florentino Perez shortly after the striker signed for Manchester City.
City and Real Madrid went head-to-head in a battle to sign the 22-year-old, with months of speculation and reports suggesting that the Spanish giants were favourites to land the generational talent.
Ultimately Haaland chose City and the Blues paid his £51m release clause, but Perez did not take too kindly to being snubbed, especially given that his club also missed out on signing fellow goal-scorer Kylian Mbappe. Back in June Perez - one of the masterminds behind the breakaway European Super League project and a regular critic of City - suggested that had Haaland joined Madrid he would have sat on the bench behind French striker Karim Benzema.
