Erling Haaland is considered more suitable to strengthen Liverpool

DBasia.news – Manchester City are almost certain to make Erling Haaland their main target in the transfer market next summer. But this plan is not liked by former Liverpool player, John Arne Riise.

Just like Haaland, Riise is also from Norway. He certainly already knows the quality of the Borussia Dortmund bomber.

He believes Haaland’s move to Manchester City will present a nightmare for his rivals in the Premier League, including Liverpool. The quality of The Citizens is considered to be much improved with the presence of Haaland in the spearhead position.

“If City gets it, wow! You’re talking about an unbeaten team, then it’s close!” Riise told Goal.

“Whoever gets Haaland, whether it’s next season or whenever, will be an incredibly strong team for years to come.”

Manchester City are still looking for a new spearhead to replace Sergio Aguero. Harry Kane, who had become the main target, now chooses to stay at Tottenham Hotspur last summer.

While Haaland’s value will be affordable next summer. With a younger age, Manchester City should shift the focus from Kane to the 21-year-old player.

But Riise hopes Liverpool will join in the hunt for Haaland. In addition to thwarting Manchester City’s plans, the Reds will also be stronger with Haaland.

“Obviously I would love to have (Haaland) at Liverpool, because he’s an amazing player. He’s in good form, and I think he’ll suit (Jurgen) Klopp’s style of football,” he added.

“I also think he will love Liverpool as a club. But I don’t know if Liverpool have the chance to sign him.”
