Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has revealed that Erling Haaland promised to win the Champions League after signing his contract with the club.
Haaland joined the Premier League champions last summer in a £51million transfer from Borussia Dortmund.
The Norwegian striker signed a five-year contract with Man City on the back of a spectacular return of 86 goals in 89 appearances for Dortmund. His arrival had fans giddy with excitement, truly believing this could be their year and it turned out to be so as he delivered the coveted Champions League trophy.

Haaland fulfilled Champions League promise
Speaking in his annual interview with the club, Al Mubarak said:
“So this was, I think, my first conversation post him signing the contract. But what amazed me about Erling is the confidence. He’s got something special, confidence with respect.
“And to be having that conversation post signing your contract with your chairman and saying at the end of that conversation, ‘Mr Chairman, I’m going to win the Champions League for you. I’m here to win the Champions League for Manchester City and we’re going to win it’ a year ago is really a testament to the greatness of this player.
“And to show you where Erling is going, this is the beginning. And the scary part, this is just the beginning for him.”
