Khaldoon saying that Haaland was on the club's radar for at least 4 years.

Khaldoon saying that Haaland was on the club's radar for at least 4 years.

He was hardly going to say that he hadn’t been and the only thing that attracted him to us was his release clause.

 

[Coatigan]

Which we can't do until July 1st anyway.

People have seen pictures from last week of him hanging around the Etihad campus with a City shirt on with 9 on the back, it's highly unlikely that he'd do that unless it's all nailed firmly down.

Flappers will flap {sighs}.

The blue shirt he was seen on didn't have a number on it. Someone posted a shirt with his name and 9 on it, but that could have been printed by anyone for anyone.

Probably will be a 9. I'm still sticking with 45 though.

 

[jimharri]

Very weird we haven’t announced it.

Even weirder the Norway manager’s comments today.

Slightly worrying.

Watch Khaldoon's interview.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Some will still worry he’s not ours as it’s the City way

A lot can’t believe how lucky we have been with the best owners, best manager etc

But some have been brought up with disappointment

I believe Big Earl is done but understand some won’t until he’s on the official channel

Let’s not forget guys - he is unproven in the Premier League, is hugely injury prone, and won’t fit Pep’s system.

Maybe no news is good news!! Over to the match day thread!

With all due respect mate.

Maybe Khaldoon knows more than some random poster on a football forum.

That was kind of the point.

 

[AColdNightInStoke]

Amazing!

It’s really tough to display sarcasm in text!

 

[manimanc]

Someone needs to tell Khaldoon this isn’t cut and dried yet

Is there not a cheetah you should be looking for?

And Jane needs her tea, now fuckoff.

Haaland stuff is all but done imo

There is no “imo”. It’s a fact

Funnily there are some posters in the transfer forum who think they know more about our incoming transfers than Khaldoon!
Wonder who was the first to post they already knew that we wanted "a couple more" lol

Is Samaras still available,?

 

[skillman]

Weak foot as well

Jokes aside, it’s frightening how much of a thunderbastard that is with his wrong foot. Christ

cup tied

There was definitely one shot that looked like it had "9" on it, not arsed enough to go back and find it.

Do Dortmund still have his image rights? That might be why there hasn't been an announcement
