Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch has already told Manchester City how to play to Erling Haaland's strengths ahead of the new Premier League season.
Haaland is set for his league debut for the Blues on Sunday as Pep Guardiola's side travel to West Ham United looking to kick-start their bid to retain their Premier League crown. Last weekend the Norwegian striker suffered defeat for the first time as a City player as Liverpool lifted the Community Shield.
It was not the best day in front of goal for the 22-year-old but there is still plenty of excitement about what he can achieve this season. Haaland spent time at RB Salzburg earlier in his career, a side who were managed at the time by current Leeds boss Marsch.

Speaking to the Liverpool Echo back in 2020, Marsch explained exactly how Guardiola can get the best out of his new goalscorer. He said: "He is a very special talent and just when you take his speed, his explosiveness, his size, his power, his technical ability, finishing, he would immediately be in the upper echelon of players in the world.
"But then when you also consider his tactical intelligence, his motivation, his discipline, his desire to improve and grow, then the combination means you have something very unique. We are only scratching the surface of the potential for Erling.
"He will continue to do well at Dortmund and I’m not sure how long he’ll be there before it’s time for him to take the next step, but he has the potential to be one of the best players in the world, no doubt. He loves the explosive style of play and being in open spaces, running in behind defences and being aggressive."
