Liam Delap told Erling Haaland arrival shouldn't impact his decision on Man City future

Liam Delap is a wanted man this summer, but the young striker has been told to stay at Manchester City for the time being.

The 19-year-old burst onto the first-team scene in 2020 when he scored on his senior City debut in a Carabao Cup win against Bournemouth. Since then he has made five more appearances for Pep Guardiola's side, but a string of injuries last season prevented him from staking a claim for more minutes.

The former Derby County youth player was part of City's pre-season tour of the US this summer along with fellow U23s stars Cole Palmer and James McAtee, but with City adding both Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez to their striking department this summer, the youngster could find minutes at the Etihad hard to come by.
