Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is optimistic that the club can still win everything without the services of Pep Guardiola. The Spaniard manager parted ways with the club after doing a fantastic job in the last 10 years.

There is no doubt that it would be difficult for City to fill in the big shoes of Guardiola but Haaland reckons they would be alright without their former manager.

Guardiola won 20 trophies during the last decade with the club, but Haaland wants City to continue winning the big titles.

“It has been an up-and-down season but we are going to try to keep pushing and try to fight to win the biggest trophies we can,” Haaland said.

“That’s what we want to win and we are fighting to win everything again. It has been a pleasure to play with Bernardo and John, and of course for Pep.

“It has been an amazing journey but we need to keep pushing and fighting even without them. Now it is time to celebrate them and they are truly legends of the club.”

Guardiola gave his gratitude to all the players and fans during the parade ceremony.

Guardiola said: “Thank you so much for coming here tonight to say bye. I’ve felt the connection that this club [has] from the first minute.

“Thank you so much, I don’t have enough gratitude. I will have [that with me] for the rest of my life.”

City had arranged the event to celebrate the team’s domestic cup double as well as the club’s Women’s Super League and FA Youth Cup triumphs.

Manchester City have appointed Enzo Maresca as their new manager on a three-year contract.
