Adebayor States the Difference Between Haaland and Aguero

• Erling Haaland is leading Manchester City's attack after making a switch from Borussia Dortmund
• Sergio Aguero was the leading striker for the Citizens for 10 years before his departure in 2021
• Former striker Emmanuel Adebayor has stated the difference between the two goal-scorers

Erling Haaland has been the most sought-after striker since he came to the limelight with RB Salzburg after scoring a hat-trick on his UEFA Champions League debut.

He was tipped to join a top European club but took the route of German club Borussia Dortmund, where he properly introduced himself.

After a year and a half, he made a £51m move to Manchester City, replacing the departed Gabriel Jesus and more importantly Sergio Aguero, who left a year earlier.

The Argentina striker played for City for 10 years and made himself a fan favourite with his prowess in front of goal, scoring 184 league goals, as recorded on Premier League's official website.

Adebayor differentiates Aguero and Haaland

The Norwegian striker, in his first season, has scored 48 goals in all competitions so far, breaking many records with more still to come.

Former City striker Emmanuel Adebayor looked beyond the goals and pointed out what the 22-year- old offers more that differentiates him from the legendary Sergio Aguero.

''I see Haaland as more robust, tougher in tackles and more assertive, while Aguero was a bit colder in one-on-one situations with the opposing keeper,'' the Togolese told Sportskeeda.

The former Borussia Dortmund striker has already surpassed Aguero's highest single-season tally and has six hat-tricks, including four in the league, also scoring three consecutive home hat-tricks against Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United.

Fans slam Guardiola for lying

Pep Guardiola, during the final game of the 2020/21 season, which crowned City as champions and was Aguero's last league game, claimed the club could not replace the departing striker.

As Sports Brief reported, fans hit back at Guardiola after the heroics of Erling Haaland this season, branding him a pathological liar for shedding tears while making the statement.

The Spanish manager failed in his pursuit of Harry Kane and opted for false 9s in place of Gabriel Jesus before landing Haaland.
