Man City reach decision on Erling Haaland's future after "burden in dressing room" theory

Manchester City want to make Erling Haaland their top earner - despite him being described as a "burden in the dressing room".

Haaland, 22, has scored 42 goals in just 37 appearances for Pep Guardiola's side since his arrival from Borussia Dortmund last summer. Despite his good form, City are eight points behind leaders Arsenal with a game in hand in the Premier League title race.

Some critics have pinned City's indifferent results on Haaland's style of play, but Guardiola is set to debunk that theory by offering the player a big new contract. Several top European clubs would love to take the Norwegian off City's hands, including Real Madrid.
