Haaland for change: “That triggered me”

The team mates have not seen Haaland that often. “I haven’t talked to him much now because he hasn’t trained with us yet,” said central defender Manuel Akanji. After all, the 20-million-euro striker is currently struggling with slight knee problems and recently had to train individually. A debut, however, is “definitely possible in the next few days,” said licensed player boss Sebastian Kehl.

He had good company in the gym, however, where he was able to exchange views with Thomas Delaney in particular, with the Dane the Norwegian was able to communicate well in his language. Delaney thus seems to be the first person in the team to relate to him. He also reported with a smile that at the beginning it is sometimes quite good if the colleagues do not understand everything that Haaland asks him.
