Erling Haaland's secret 'favourite club' is revealed by Manchester City team-mate Julian Alvarez... and it's NOT Leeds or any of his former teams

Manchester City star Julian Alvarez has revealed Erling Haaland's 'favourite club'.

The 22-year-old hitman, who has scored 33 goals in 34 appearances across all competitions since joining City last summer, fell in love with a particular club thanks to Marseille defender Leandro Balerdi.

Haaland and Balerdi rubbed shoulders at Borussia Dortmund for six months during the Norwegian's two-year stint at the Bundesliga outfit.

The striker may hold a soft spot for his previous teams Dortmund, Red Bull Salzburg, Molde and Bryne, but none of these clubs come close to his favourite side, according to his Manchester City team-mate.
