Transfer window: Man City ace De Bruyne expecting outstanding things from Haaland

Date:

Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne has welcomed new signing Erling Haaland.

De Bruyne is backing Haaland to have a positive impact at Manchester City ahead of his big-money arrival from Borussia Dortmund.

“Erling Haaland is a top striker,” De Bruyne told HLN in Belgium. “His move should help us to grow as a team. Everybody expects a lot.

“They’ve always been looking for a No.9, but I think it’ll be good to have that striker that maybe scores 20-25 goals a season.”

De Bruyne added: “Maybe (his arrival might help me too). There have been years that I have had more assists (than this season).

“But my chance creation and other things have remained consistent. Numbers are a part of football but they never tell you the full story.”
