Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been a key figure in their success this term.

The Citizens had a shaky first half of the campaign, but are now firing on all cylinders.

As they close in on the Premier League title, have an FA Cup final to come, and prepare to face Real Madrid in the Champions League semi finals, Rodri spoke about the tactical importance of having Haaland.

He told reporters: "The arrival of a player like Erling added to the way we have played for a number of years.

"At first it was hard to find a way - not his ability to score, but to understand the players and how the team plays. There are other things other than just scoring.

"I am really satisfied with the tactical changes the coach has brought in, and we adapt to what the coach demands - a single pivot or double pivot - and with my experience it allows me to adapt."
