DBasia.news – Ilkay Gundogan, Manchester City midfielder and captain, feels that Erling Haaland has enough material to win the Ballon d’Or.
Gundogan has been impressed by the way Haaland has adapted quickly at City. He has now scored 20 goals and three assists across competitions in just 13 games!
“He is really quality, and everyone can see it. But the way he processes things is also important for our mentality and the atmosphere in the dressing room,” said Gundogan, Thursday (20/10).
“He is special, and on top of that he is also very humble. He knows he has to work hard to get better.”
“I’m sure he will get better and better. Not only this season, but in the next few years.”
“He will be an absolutely fantastic player, which he has already proven, but I think we can make his chances of winning the Ballon d’Or even bigger in the future.”
Nearby, Man City will host Brighton in the 13th week of the English Premier League at the Etihad Stadium, Saturday (22/10). The Citizens can return to their winning track after the defeat to Liverpool at Anfield.
