‘You’re a tremendous Nordic meat shield’ - Watch Haaland, Grealish and the Man City squad meet the Greeters Guild

Manchester City new boy Erling Haaland received a welcome he is unlikely to forget for a while when reporting for duty at the Premier League club. The Norwegian was dubbed a "tremendous Nordic meat shield" by the Greeters Guild, who was on hand to meet the Premier League champions in a hilarious stunt at their training base.

The Greeters Guild, a character developed by comedian Troy Hawke, is a well-dressed gentleman who goes out of his way to compliment his 'clients' as they enter a business or workplace, and his antics have quickly become a social media sensation.

The City squad took their unorthodox arrival to training in largely fine spirits, with Jack Grealish providing a particular highlight as he ran his hands over his face to confirm whether it was in fact "fabulously symmetrical".
