Premier League star named one thing he want to learn from Erling Haaland, after 14 goals.
Erling Haaland, a Norwegian international, has gained notoriety after signing a contract with Manchester City in the summer for a variety of reasons.
First of all, many had questioned if Haaland, who has been hailed as a generational talent throughout the world, could quickly adjust to Premier League football.
It is difficult to fathom any discussion about the English top division that does not include the 22-year-old after he accomplished this feat in record-breaking style with an incredible 11 goals to his name in only seven games.
Erling Haaland and Jack Grealish are known to get along well, and now Jack Grealish has admitted that ever since the teenager joined the team from Borussia Dortmund in the summer, he can’t help but bring up the youngster’s name.
“Family, friends, and random strangers always ask me about my boyfriend wherever I go, and I can’t say enough good things about him.
In a recent news conference, he said, “He is an unbelievable player and a wonderful person, very modest for what he has already accomplished.”
The Manchester City forward was also asked if he could pick up any tips from the game of the prolific goal scorer.

“I really believe I could.
“His approach to scoring goals is incredible. I wish I could have that.
I came here and chatted to (England coach) Steve Holland, and he asked, “Was that genuinely you at the back stick scoring (against Wolves)?” Jack Grealish added.
“(He stated it) because I haven’t been known for doing it, but I want to do it more frequently.
I would take that “if I could take anything.”
Last but not least, Grealish discussed how a similar start to his teammate’s Manchester City career, after joining the Premier League champions for £100 million from Aston Villa, might have altered perceptions of him.
“When I joined Manchester City, I was aware that it wouldn’t be all fun and games until I got off to a similar start as Haaland did.
“I believe that is the only way I could avoid getting a cane. I’m not saying that nothing ever affects me since I’m a 27-year-old young man; it always does.
All things considered, Jack Grealish’s apparent appreciation for Erling Haaland as a person and a player is fantastic news for any Manchester City fan.
One will definitely be hoping that Grealish enhances his performances over the coming months to match those of his City comrades.
