Is Haaland the Key to Manchester City Winning the Champions League?
Well, the dotted line has been signed, and Erling Haaland has officially made his move to Manchester City. The striker is one of the most sought-after players on the market, considered second only to famed PSG player Kylian Mbappe.

And it’s looking hopeful for a Champions League win after reaching the final in the last season, which was a first for Man City.
