Manchester City are preparing to open talks with Erling Haaland over a new contract in a bid to end speculation over the prolific striker's future once and for all.
The Premier League champions snapped up Haaland in a £51million deal back in the summer after fighting off interest from a host of Europe's elite once it became clear that the Norwegian international was ready to move on from Borussia Dortmund.
To say that the 22-year-old has adapted seamlessly to life in England would be an understatement: Haaland has plundered 47 goals in just 40 games and is already just one strike away from eclipsing the record for most goals in a 38-game Premier League season (32).
