Pep Guardiola sends advice to young football fans who want to score goals like Erling Haaland

Ahead of City’s clash with Leeds United at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday 6 May, Guardiola sat down with the press to discuss tactics, Champions League hopes, and what makes super striker Haaland tick.

During the press conference, Guardiola touched on Haaland’s previous claim that cow's milk is the driving force behind his stunning 35-goal season.

Back in April, a source close to the 22-year-old Norwegian striker revealed to The Sun that powdered cows milk mixed with spinach and kale is the recipe to Haaland’s success this season.

The Man City forward has also previously called the concoction his ‘magic potion’ and now Guardiola is weighing in on the claims.

Then, when prompted to discuss his striker’s fitness levels, Guardiola stated: “The people say he has milk, or something, drinks something like that.

Guardiola then dispensed some wisdom relating to how young football fans could become as prolific as Haaland in the future.

While Guardiola has all but dismissed the ‘magic potion’ claims, he might do well to remind Haaland to drink the concoction ahead of City’s UEFA Champions League semi-final clash with Real Madrid tomorrow (May 9).

The squad are set to fly out shortly and face the 14-time Champions League winners at Santiago Bernabeu in the first semi-final leg.

City will then host Carlo Ancelotti’s side at home on May 17, where they will be hoping to book their place in the final.

In the Premier League, Guardiola’s men still face fixtures against Everton, Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford.

Earlier last month it was reported that the forthcoming FA Cup final would be moved to an earlier 3pm kick-off on 3 June.

The decision was made in collaboration with the FA and The Metropolitan Police, who believed that the event was a high-risk future and that public transport could be impacted by travelling fans.
