According to the Liverpool Echo, Manchester City’s No.9, Erling Haaland, has been assisting Liverpool’s No.8, Dominik Szoboszlai, in settling into life in the Premier League following Szoboszlai’s summer transfer from RB Leipzig.

Haaland, a key player for Manchester City, has reportedly given advice to his former RB Salzburg teammate Szoboszlai on purchasing properties in the north of England. This advice led to the two becoming neighbors in their new locale.

Although Haaland and Szoboszlai only played together for 19 games during their time at RB Salzburg, it appears they developed a strong bond that has continued as they both moved on to Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig, respectively.

While some Manchester City fans may be concerned about Haaland helping a key player from a rival team adapt to the Premier League, the article suggests that Manchester City possesses enough firepower to compete with Liverpool even if Szoboszlai becomes a significant force in the league.

The article also mentions the possibility of Szoboszlai becoming a long-term replacement for Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne, who is now 32 years old and has been dealing with more injuries.

Szoboszlai and De Bruyne share similar playing styles, operating in the same areas between the lines and possessing the technical skills to break down opposing defenses. If the opportunity arises in the coming years, Manchester City should consider signing Szoboszlai as a potential replacement for De Bruyne.
