PEP GUARDIOLA PREVIEW

Pep Guardiola is delighted that Erling Haaland has committed his long-term future to Manchester City and says he is making him a better manager.

The Norwegian has signed a new 10-year contract, that will keep him at the Club until the summer of 2034.

One of the best strikers in world football, the 24-year-old has made a huge impact in his two-and-a-half years at City scoring 111 goals already and winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and the Champions League as well as a raft of individual honours.

“It’s exceptional news for all of us at the club,” the City boss said in his news conference ahead of our game with Ipswich.

“When one player decides to sign this type of contract it’s because he wants to show how he wants to be here.

“It’s the trust of the club to Erling – the club knows perfectly how professional he is. His commitment every day and every game to show his talent.

“And from him because in 10 years we never know what’s going to happen, it’s a long time. Always in a short career what will happen will happen. He proved what he wanted. And he has trust in the club.

“I think what happened is that he loves the club, the people he’s around, the Premier League, he loves to be here and I think he visualised that there is no better place he could be right now or the next 10 years I would say.”

PREVIOUS MEETING

Our last trip to Portman Road came in January 2002 in the FA Cup fourth round, where we secured an emphatic 4-1 victory after a brace from Shaun Goater, added to by goals from Eyal Berkovic and Darren Huckerby for Kevin Keegan’s side.

We also met the Tractor Boys in the league earlier this season at the Etihad and sealed another 4-1 victory, with Erling Haaland netting a treble and Kevin De Bruyne also getting on the scoresheet.

LAST TIME OUT

On Tuesday evening, City fought out a draw 2-2 away to Brentford, with Phil Foden scoring twice, but Yoane Wissa and Christian Norgaard firing back for the Bees late on.

As for Kieran McKenna’s side, they aren’t in action until Thursday evening, where they host Brighton.
