“Am I supposed to answer that?”: Haaland hits back over Man City charges question

Erling Haaland has insisted he is “incredibly happy” at Manchester City after being questioned about the club’s Premier League charges while on international duty with Norway.

City have been found guilty of 114 breaches of financial rules over nine seasons but are appealing the independent commission’s decision.

According to the Daily Mirror, Haaland responded to TV 2’s question by listing the teams he played for during the period under investigation.

“The investigation covered 2009 to 2018. In 2009, I played for Bryne U9s,” the striker said. He added: “It’s a case between the Premier League and Manchester City that a panel will deal with. Am I supposed to answer that? I’m not really sure.”

The 26-year-old, who scored and assisted in Norway’s 3-1 win over Wales, pointed to his contract: “I’m a City player, and I’m incredibly happy there.” Haaland signed a nine-and-a-half-year deal with City in late 2024 and now turns his focus to Tuesday’s crucial trip to Denmark.
