Good things come to those who wait.
And for Manchester City, almost 12 months on since their hopes of signing Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur faded away, the wait for a new striker has been worth it. The club has officially completed the signing of Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund, ending their search for Sergio Aguero's long-term successor.
Haaland arrives in Manchester with the reputation of being one of the most exciting youngsters in world football, following a stellar two-and-a-half-year period in Germany. After joining Dortmund from Red Bull Salzburg in December 2019, he plundered a staggering 86 goals in 89 appearances, meaning it is quite easy to understand why so many clubs were intent on landing his signature.
