Erling Haaland believes Manchester City will be stronger next season after a period of transition within the squad.
City have integrated several new signings over the past 18 months, with Pep Guardiola overseeing a shift in personnel that has required time to settle.
“It’s been a lot of change now the last couple of years, I would say in the last year,” Haaland said.
“There’s been lots of players that have been here for a long time. So with new players, it takes time. It’s not easy to come into a new league, new country, all of this. It takes time to adapt.”

The striker signed a long-term contract extension in 2025 and made it clear he remains committed to the club.
“I’m super happy and I’m looking forward to what’s next because I think it’s exciting times for City as a club and also me as a player,” he said.
“I’m looking forward to continuing with City.”
