LONDON, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) — Manchester City striker Erling Haaland put an end to all hypotheses about his long career on Friday when he signed a mammoth new contract with the club.
The Norwegian has written a nine and a half years contract to keep it at Manchester City until 2034, when he is 33 years old.
The new contract will end all the rumors about their future, since Real Madrid and Barcelona would be interested in signing the striker, who has already scored 79 goals in the Premier League.
“I’m super satisfied. I’m proud. It’s difficult to put words into words because it’s a wonderful moment. I’m satisfied and it’s the right word to use. “
“I am super proud and happy and I am looking forward to staying here for a long time. In the end, speaking with the people I spoke with, the hunger and the support that I have been getting for the last couple of years from the board, from the bosses and from Pep, it was an easy decision. I am delighted,” said Haaland on the Manchester City website.
Haaland said he was convinced the club could recover from its existing form of form and said his appointment with coach Pep Guardiola is one of the reasons why he had to make his stay longer.
“I have improved a lot. It is so nice to work with him. Not only because he is the best, but he is also the most hard-working person I have ever seen.”
“People think it is just because this or that, however, the amount of hours that gets upset is also motivating and inspiring. I want,” said Haaland. ■
