Erling Haaland sends trophy warning as Man City hunt fourth Prem title in a row
Erling Haaland has warned his rivals he is on a mission to win as many trophies as possible.
Haaland landed himself a Treble last season in his first campaign after joining Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund in a £52m deal. The Norwegian superstar is also on course to win a Premier League and FA Cup Double this time round.
But in an ominous warning to City’s challengers, Haaland has told them his thirst for silverware will never be quenched. Haaland admitted winning the Treble felt “unreal” – and increased his appetite for more success.

The striker told the ‘Men In Blazers’ podcast: “I want more. Right now my only focus is winning the Premier League and after that, the FA Cup.
“But I want to win more of these big trophies, because the Treble feeling was unreal. It’s about trying to be successful and develop as a player and a person.”

Haaland, meanwhile, has told Roy Keane he’s talking rubbish by labelling him a spoilt brat for falling out with Pep Guardiola.
Haaland appeared to have a row with the City boss after being hauled off during last weekend’s hammering of Wolves. But the striker insists his anger was not aimed at Guardiola and the pair of them are just fine.
He added: “I wasn’t mad because of that (being subbed). I was mad for something completely different.
“I was super happy because Julian (Alvarez) came on and scored. I’d love to score more goals, but I wasn’t mad about getting subbed off.
“I’m happy for the guy who came on for me, Julian – and that’s how it is.”
