Haaland nets 2 in City rout, Guardiola denies release clause
After Erling Haaland's latest two-goal display in the Champions League, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola had to quell speculation that the Norway striker could already be planning a move out of the club. Guardiola dismissed rumors of a release clause in Haaland's contract, insisting that the player is happy at City and focused on the team's success.
Haaland has been in sensational form this season, scoring 10 goals in just seven Champions League games. His brace against Borussia Monchengladbach helped City secure a 2-0 win in the first leg of their last-16 tie. With his impressive performances, Haaland has become one of the most sought-after talents in European football.
Despite the transfer rumors, Haaland's focus remains on the pitch. "I'm just trying to enjoy myself as much as I can and score goals for this team," he said after the win over Monchengladbach. With City still in contention for four trophies this season, Haaland's goals could prove crucial in their quest for silverware.
