if he chooses City, we win the CL, the prem, the domestic cups, spot-the-ball,
tour de france, grand national and the sweep at the Dog and Duck.
If he doesn't, we'll 'ave to settle for the football stuff. Over many years spectating, i have only ever seen one player that " almost" guaranteed success, that was peak Messi, if Haaland ever reaches that level (who knows) then i would hope it's as a City player. If he doesn't sign for us, the world wont end, we will be in contention for the prem and european honours etc. the progress of the last ten years will see to that. Tantalising, frustrating situation. Impatience is a bastard :)
 
How does anyone know where he prefers? Is there a link for a statement from him? please
I don't believe he supports any English team, he was a kid who simply wore the shirts of the teams his dad played for: Leeds, City and Forest.
Or has he stated anywhere Leeds is his team?

I love Citys silence on all this, so professional, but it does leave a lot of room for click bate.

Fair on assumptions on his preference.

Misplaced on what English teams he has an affinity for. He has said and showm enough on both Leeds and City for claims like that to have some substance. A few on here have shared them a number of times on here.

Rightly enough whether it has anything to do with where he wants to play is down to individual guesswork. But would not at all surprise me if he did join if he then went on to claim in interviews he supported City as a child. And the age he was when the club hit the exciting spell, why wouldnt he have?

True.
The kids around my way are running around in fake shirts picked up in the Kusadasi Friday Market.
None of them have any affinity to Besiktas or Fenerbace.
There's even one of Rivaldo but the kid has no chance of playing with Brazil.
Haaland and his team will rely more on the stability of the manager, Champions league qualification over a period of time, along with wages and bonuses.

Speaking back in 2017 to Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten while playing for Molde, Erling Haaland said: "I want to be the best. The dream is to win the Premier League with Leeds.

He absolutely did support Leeds and City. I think you can find it on BM but Alfie wrote a guest piece about his time at City in 2014 and explicitly stated Erling was a City fan and was running around celebrating when the Aguero goal happened. He's been part of a City fan club, liked loads of pro City tweets, been to games, wore multiple City shirt etc. He's also stated himself he wants to win the PL with Leeds and wore their shirt just this past year.

He has admitted in the past he supported Leeds but I suppose that’s not what we want to hear . As for the Real Madrid everyone knows it his preferred destination and if they weren’t getting the French lad from psg this deal would already be done . He might cone to city and I would be delighted but I’m not holding out for it and tbh I prefer Harry Kane .

How do you know Madrid is his preferred destination? let alone everyone. I'm not saying City is either btw. Just that nobody knows that.
 
Whether we get Haaland or not I would be very very surprised if we go into next season without a world class center forward so all good..
