Manchester City defender, John Stones, has tipped his teammate Erling Haaland to break the Champions League records of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo after an impressive display against RB Leipzig on Wednesday.
Haaland recently broke a long- standing record at Man City by being the club’s all-time leading scorer for a single season, with 39 goals.
The Norwegian scored five goals in his team ruthless performance against RB Leipzig.
Stone said;
“He’d probably thrive off it. I believe he really could do what he wants, just from his hunger, his attitude and his professionalism and I’d love to see him do it, definitely.
“I think he wants to just win. I think if you have that mentality, then the personal accolades just come naturally without chasing them.
“That could be totally wrong, but I think Erling is a huge team player and with that kind of mindset, he is going that way to break more records.”
