Manchester City’s official Instagram account also released a video capturing Haaland’s arrival, in which he declared he feels refreshed, well-rested, and that his summer break was perfect.

It’s worth noting that during their preseason camp, City are scheduled to play just one friendly—on August 9 against Italian side Palermo. The Citizens’ official season opener comes on August 16, when they face Wolverhampton in the opening round of the Premier League.
