Jack Grealish of Manchester City claimed that the Copenhagen goalkeeper had told him that Erling Haaland, a Norwegian striker, was “not human,” after Haaland scored twice in the decisive Champions League victory at the Etihad Stadium for Manchester City.
Haaland added the double against Copenhagen in Group G of the Champions League to bring his season total of goals scored while playing for Manchester City to 19.
After the win over Haaland, Grealish told BT Sport, “It’s crazy, frankly; I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. He’s not human, I say as I turn around. You’re telling me, I asked.
The Manchester City forward continued, “I hope he maintains this performance and helps us to continue winning.”
The Premier League winner will fly to Denmark on Tuesday to play Copenhagen again in order to advance to the round of 16 of the European tournament. Haaland is ready to face Southampton next Saturday, and the striker will try to record a new hat-trick in the league.
Since joining the Premier League champions, Haaland has scored 19 goals in 12 games, including 14 goals in eight Premier League games.
The five-year contract that the Norwegian striker signed with Manchester City in May has a number of conditions in it. However, if Real Madrid were interested in signing the striker, there is no explicit penalty clause in the contract that would permit them to do so.
Grealish: Haaland is constantly present, and the goalie for Copenhagen claimed that he is not human.
