Erling Haaland’s move to Manchester City will no doubt prove quite hard to take for most at Manchester United – not least Jadon Sancho.
The Norwegian superstar has of course had his move to the Etihad confirmed ahead of the summer, with City announcing they had reached an agreement with Borussia Dortmund which will see him arrive at Eastlands on July 1. Haaland’s arrival looks set to be one of, if not the deal of the summer, with the Blues beating some of Europe’s biggest names to his signature.
United were among those sides said to be interested for a long time, although as the season wore on, it became clearer and clearer that their hopes were fading. With United searching for a new frontman or two this summer, Haaland’s arrival at Old Trafford would have been quite the coup, especially as they look to get themselves back in contention with the likes of City in the Premier League.
