Pep Guardiola wants to win the UEFA Champions League title at some point with Manchester City.They have come close on a couple of occasions, but have yet to be crowned champions. The Manchester City roster is one of the most expensive in the tournament.

Erling Haaland could be the perfect striker to score those decisive goals, but at the same time the Premier League is different from the Bundesliga, where only a few teams like Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund can compete for the UCL.

Manchester City lost two players who were considered key to the team’s attack:Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling. But Guardiola already has in mind who willreplace them.
