THE BIGGER PICTURE
Haaland and City are preparing for the new Premier League season as they aim for a record-extending fifth straight title. The Norwegian will be key to that bid in what could be manager Pep Guardiola's last season in charge of the Sky Blues - with the Spaniard out of contract in 2025.
