Haaland: I feel a positive energy charging back through City | OneFootball

Fresh from signing his new 10-year contract, Erling Haaland says he feels a ‘positive energy’ charging back through City.

Our Norwegian striker committed his long-term future to the Club late last week, penning a new 10-year contract.

It was a huge boost for everyone – and came on the back of what has been an unbeaten start to 2025 for Pep Guardiola’s side.

And addressing the media at Tuesday’s pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday’s big Champions League clash at Paris Saint-Germain, Haaland said after what had been a tough period prior to the Christmas, he now detected huge reasons for optimism looking ahead with City unbeaten so far in 2025.

“I feel like a positive energy in the club,” the Norwegian confirmed.

“It’s been a hard period - everyone knows that.

“I feel the energy and I think we're over that now and we look forward in time.

“We are looking forward to tomorrow and to many games.

“For me, I just signed a nine and half year deal so of course I’m happy. I’m super happy with my choice.”

After being affected by injury issues towards the end of his time at Borussia Dortmund prior to moving to the Etihad, one of the many striking facets of Haaland’s extraordinary first two and a half seasons at City has been his superb levels of fitness and availability.

Bar a foot problem which sidelined him for two months last season, the 24-year-old has largely stayed injury free in that time.

Asked if he had done anything different since moving to City, the striker revealed how he had made a number of tweaks to his daily routine in an effort to ensure he stays fit and healthy, including measuring his sleep.

“Taking good care of my body first of all,” Erling added when outlining his routine.

“I try to do everything to be available for the club and for the team.

“It’s gone really well so far this season. It’s about taking care and preparing in the right way, getting the right sleep and eating the right things.

“I probably changed a few things. What it is I don’t know.

“I started measuring my sleep to make sure I slept well and I did sleep well.

“That is something new but everything else I did the same.”
