EPL: Man City boss Guardiola keeps mum on Haaland
Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola, has refused to consider reports claiming of a deal agreed with Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
It is understood that a suitable financial package – which would make Haaland the Premier League’s highest-paid player on more than £500,000 a week – has been agreed.
But, when pressed on the reports the reigning Premier League champions were prepared to trigger the Norwegian’s £63million release clause, Guardiola simply responded: “No answer to your question.”

Guardiola was then asked to give his opinion on the 21-year-old but claimed he did not have the time to consider his side’s summer plans.
“I don’t have the concern or this business in my head right now to think about what is going to happen in this club next season,” he said.
