However, Haaland and Khaldoon Al Mubarak separated from the cheering crowd, who took the opportunity to exchange a few words with the man whose 36 goals did so much to take City for the new title after his £51 million. moved from Borussia Dortmund last summer.
Hands behind his back and upright, almost like a schoolboy standing in front of his teacher, Haaland listened intently as the city council chairman placed two hands on his giant shoulders, leaned over and said his part. From time to time the Norwegian nodded approvingly.

It was an intimate scene in stark contrast to the raucous celebrations that were to follow, as City took a brief moment to bask in their latest success before they returned to business and the prospect of becoming the only English club in history since Manchester United. to win high frequencies. United are, of course, between City and an FA Cup win at Wembley on 3 June, and a week later, Guardiola's side will play Inter Milan in the Champions League final in Istanbul.

Remarks that might to spice up that meeting at Wembley, were met with laughter from several City teammates, including the former Leeds midfielder. Calvin Phillips.
Walker was far from the only City player who decided to make the most of the moment. Haaland, who clearly has a sense of humor as well as a sharp eye for a target, and his girlfriend Isabelle Johansen came to the party wearing matching sky blue pajamas with their initials.
