OPINION: Erling Haaland's move to Manchester City looks set to be confirmed later this week and it could totally change the Premier League landscape.

But with City looking likely to win their fourth title in the last five years, our division is looking dangerously close to becoming one becoming totally dominated by one side - and Haaland's arrival will certainly not help that. Yet even the greatest Liverpool side in living memory will struggle to match a City with Haaland leading the line. To state the obvious, Haaland is a monster; a machine; like something made in a lab.

"It's a decision for Erling," Watzke said. When we sold Ousmane Dembélé to Barcelona after a short period, it was a very good deal. When the time is ready, he will do it. What he did know for sure, however, was if Haaland did leave, Dortmund will continue competing as it always has done. "Sometimes, it's a little bit more emotional," Watzke admits.

With reports that Erling Haaland to Man City is a "done deal" here's why he joined the Manchester club, how he'll fit in, and what his future prospects are ...

Man City are one of the most possession-oriented teams in the entire world, and to a lesser extent that tracks with Dortmund's style as well. His touch efficiency is also far better than anyone else currently at City. In his 23 Bundesliga appearances this season, Haaland produced 65 non-blocked shots on 150 touches in the opposition penalty area, a whopping 43 percent shot to touch rate. Meanwhile, Man City's four-player combination that were most utilized in a purely attacking role — Riyad Mahrez, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, and Phil Foden — collected 601 touches in the opposition penalty area, producing 165 non-blocked shots, a 27 percent rate. Haaland's arrival will require a reversion back to the setup with Aguero in the team, which could cause some tactical upheaval within Guardiola's plans. If the young Norwegian hopes to reach the levels of brand names like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, this is a critical component of his next destination. At Man City, Haaland will get the global exposure he needs to become one of the world's most recognized players. With Borussia Dortmund, Haaland failed to advance past the quarterfinals in any of his three seasons. While Man City's 13.8 percent goal conversion rate this season is tops in the Premier League, it's a far cry from Dortmund's 19 percent, fueled by Haaland's finishing. Most of the reports are referring to the move as a "done deal." This allowed Haaland and his agents possessed all the leverage in negotiations for personal terms. He left to play three more seasons in his native Norway before retirement, but a connection to Manchester was clearly well-established. Sky Germany reports that the release clause stipulates the transfer fee must be paid in one lump sum installment.

City ready to pay Borussia Dortmund £64m for Norwegian · Striker poised to sign five-year contract at Etihad Stadium.

Guardiola’s desire to also acquire Jack Grealish, who cost City a British‑record £100m when he joined from Aston Villa last summer, made the transfer of Kane impossible. However, he already has 181 senior games at the age of 21 and City are confident he will be a success. The deal is expected to be announced imminently by the German club, Haaland having informed them of his wish to leave after two-and-a-half years in Germany. Personal terms between the player and City have been agreed.

ERLING HAALAND is widely expected to join Manchester City ahead of next season.

Tielemans would be another great addition to City's ranks and is widely expected to leave Leicester City between now and the start of next season. De Jong would seemingly fit the profile of what City are looking for to replace Fernandinho in the holding midfield role and has plenty of time on his side at the age of just 24. Manchester City look set to complete a stunning move for Borussia Dortmund marksman Erling Haaland in the near future to boost their hopes of beating Liverpool to another Premier League title next season.

Telegraph Sport visits Bryne, the Norwegian town where Man City-bound Haaland made his name and where they consider him one of their own.

As a child growing up in Bryne, having come back from Norway, Erling had a soft spot for the three English teams his father played for but he supported Arsenal, and would wear the kit to training. He moved to Salzburg when he was 18 and he did not play in the first team [for Red Bull] at first,” Berntsen says. Pobel starts work every night at 1.30am, painting with a repurposed fire extinguisher, and finishes as the first cars come into town around 5.30am. He agrees to be in our photographer’s picture so long as his anonymity is preserved. Erling is robust and self-dependent.” At Molde, Berntsen estimates that the skinny teenage Erling added 20kgs of muscle and, as the goals came, all of Europe was watching him. He is now separated from Erling's mother, Gry, and has two more children with a new partner, but the pair are grandparents to their daughter Gabrielle’s child. “He had to have more of a challenge but we did not want to take him away from his friends.” In club football Erling and his team-mates first played three against three games, building up gradually to nine against nine. That was not the only benefit to Bryne of Alf’s return from the Premier League. He also opened the town’s first nightclub. The Bryne academy philosophy under Berntsen, also a schoolteacher, was that the club’s players should play different sports to improve their movement. It was a strong group that eventually produced five professionals and staying in it meant that Erling could form lasting friendships. It was hard to get a move overseas in those days, and anyway, he says, it would have been difficult to leave the farm given his father’s health problems. Thirty years after he retired in 1986, Erling was to make his Bryne FK first team debut aged 15.

BVB's star Norwegian striker will be leaving Dortmund for Blue-er pastures.

Haaland was never going to stay around forever: BVB’s front office ensured that when they gave him a release clause, and he was probably never going to join in the first place if they hadn’t done so.

Not the easiest role in football, maybe, but surely the easiest decision to bring him in. It requires a mental shift to cope with that because it puts the focus squarely on a player's finishing for them to impress. Watching the ball circulated around him is unlikely to be an issue. He is said to have complained that team-mates did not pass him the ball. It is the position where patience is everything.

These claims tie in with a recent report by Graeme Bailey of 90 Min that stated that while the 21-year old had previously been ‘uncommitted’ about deciding his future club, ‘talks’ about his role at Manchester City were ‘crucial’ in his decision to join the club. It has also been revealed that the Borussia Dortmund talisman’s aim is also to win the Ballon d’Or and to compete in the latter stages of the Champions League, as the opportunity of working alongside Pep Guardiola at Manchester City ‘excites’ him.

Manchester City are expected to announce the arrival of Borussia Dortmund goalscoring ace and his arrival could boost them off the field as well as on it.

But as a force of nature, 6ft 4 ins, quick and also equipped with a shrewd football brain, he has all the tools to make a real mess of Premier League defences. The fact he has scored 85 goals in 88 games in German football — and 15 in 13 Champions League appearances — tells you all you need to know about his credentials as an Aguero replacement on the field. In a week when City are set to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Aguero’s 93:20 moment, it is worth remembering that it was that one goal that propelled Aguero from being a dynamic goalscoring striker into a legendary figure.

Manchester City legend Vincent Kompany helped organise Erling Haaland's medical in Brussels, Belgium yesterday, according to an emerging report.

However, it is not just on the pitch where Kompany has helped City recently. They tried to swoop for Spurs' Harry Kane, but Daniel Levy blocked the potential £100+ transfer. In 2019, after over a decade of service, Vincent Kompany called time on his illustrious Manchester City career.

Even when they are being so successful, they are still going out and buying the best players out there. Last summer it was Jack Grealish, this time round it is Haaland. And as far as City are concerned, if there is any kind of weakness in this City squad, a lot of experts say they just need an out-and-out No 9 - they missed out on Harry Kane last summer, now they have gone out and got Haaland.
