Erling Haaland Transfer Saga Takes Another Twist

Paul Merson Makes 'Unbelievable' Claim About Man City Striker

The Erling Haaland transfer saga has taken another twist, with former Arsenal and England midfielder Paul Merson making an 'unbelievable' claim about the Manchester City striker.

Merson, who is now a pundit for Sky Sports, has suggested that Haaland could leave Manchester City in the summer of 2024, just two years after joining the club from Borussia Dortmund.

Haaland's Impressive Start to Life at Manchester City

Haaland has been in scintillating form since joining Manchester City, scoring 31 goals in 26 appearances in all competitions.

The Norwegian striker has also broken several records, including becoming the fastest player to reach 20 Premier League goals.

However, Merson believes that Haaland's impressive start to life at Manchester City could be short-lived.

Merson's 'Unbelievable' Claim

Merson has claimed that Haaland could leave Manchester City in the summer of 2024 if the club does not win the UEFA Champions League.

He believes that Haaland is a player who is driven by success and that he will not be satisfied with anything less than winning the biggest trophies in club football.

Merson's claim is certainly 'unbelievable', given that Haaland has only just joined Manchester City and has a contract until 2027.

Manchester City's Champions League Hopes

Manchester City are one of the favorites to win the UEFA Champions League this season.

However, they have not won the competition since 2011 and have been knocked out at the semi-final stage in each of the last two seasons.

If Manchester City fail to win the Champions League this season, it will be interesting to see if Haaland stays at the club long-term.

Conclusion

Paul Merson's claim that Haaland could leave Manchester City in 2024 if they do not win the Champions League is certainly 'unbelievable'.

However, it is a reminder that even the best players in the world are always looking for success and that they will not hesitate to move on if they are not getting what they want.
