Manchester City confirmed the signing of the Norwegian striker on a five-year deal today, with Haaland commenting:

"This is a proud day for me and my family.

"There are so many world-class players in this squad and Pep is one of the greatest managers of all-time, so I believe I am in the right place to fulfil my ambitions.

"I want to score goals, win trophies and improve as a footballer and I am confident I can do that here. This is a great move for me and I can’t wait to get started in pre-season."
