Kyle Walker has said that Manchester City will need Erling Haaland to be at his devastating best to ensure they beat Inter Milan in the Champions League final.
The Sky Blues right-back was speaking to our source as he lauded the £51.2 million (Eurosport) man’s impact on his side.
As Manchester City embark on the final step to complete the treble by facing Inter Milan in the Champions League final, Kyle Walker emphasised the need for Erling Haaland to step up to the plate.
Ilkay Gundogan branded the youngster as the ‘best striker in the world’ and praised him for adding a ‘different quality’ to this City side since his arrival.
With 12 goals for Haaland in the Champions League, he has most certainly been a hit for Guardiola and Co. in Europe’s elite competition.
Initially, Kyle Walker lavished praise on to Erling Haaland for his staggering impact in a Manchester City shirt, before pleading with him to do the business against Inter Milan.
“Erling’s been fantastic. I think I’ve said it in numerous interviews now that for someone to come into the Premier League and hit it at storm in the first time of asking with the goals that he’s got and the important goals that he’s scored is a credit to him and to the dedication that he’s shown to the game.”
“But we’re asking him for one more. We need a few goals come Saturday and hopefully that can get us over the line to lift this prestigious title that we’ve been chasing for so many years.”
Manchester City vs Inter Milan could be decided by Erling Haaland singlehandedly
Kyle Walker is right in laying emphasis on how key Erling Haaland could be to this Manchester City side’s chances of beating Inter Milan.
This is not to say that if Haaland perhaps have an off day, his teammates cannot bail him out on the day, as this has been the case on a select few occasions this season.
However, if the Norwegian striker feels right at it from the first whistle, it is almost a guarantee that Pep Guardiola’s side will become European champions and treble winners on Saturday.
