Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom hopes that Manchester City star Erling Haaland plays on Saturday.

The Championship club are taking on the Premier League champions in the FA Cup semi finals at Wembley.

While Heckingbottom knows his side are massive underdogs, he is relishing taking on the world's most in form striker in Haaland.

I've been a big fan of his before he came to England. I was delighted City signed him because I wanted to watch him I didn't know we would be playing them in a semi-final of the FA Cup," explained the Blades manager.

From that point of view, I would love him to be playing though hopefully we wouldn't see the best of him.

He is all about goals. Everything he does is about how and where he can score them. He is so aggressive attacking space, making space, and loves to finish."
