Sheffield United captain John Egan believes Man City star Erling Haaland is already one of the GREATEST strikers in Premier League history

Sheffield United captain John Egan believes Erling Haaland is already one of the greatest strikers in Premier League history.

Egan faced the Manchester City goal-machine during last season's FA Cup semi-final at Wembley, when a hat-trick from Riyad Mahrez gave Pep Guardiola's men a 3-0 win.

City went on to achieve a glorious treble as 23-year-old Haaland hit 52 goals in an astonishing debut season in English football.

Republic of Ireland defender Egan marked some of the top flight's leading forwards during the Blades' previous stint in the Premier League between 2019 and 2021.
