The Norwegian hot-shot has only been part of the last two campaigns at the Etihad – but he has proved to be the final piece of the jigsaw for the champs.
While the £51.4million ace sticks around, it’s safe to assume they will continue to rip up the goal-scoring record books.
For the second time in a fortnight, Haaland helped himself to two goals against the Young Boys of Switzerland.
There’s a fair chance he would have got another match ball too had Pep Guardiola not subbed him off with almost half an hour to go.
But he knew the job was done – City have qualified for the knock-out rounds for an 11th straight season with the minimum of fuss.
And their top scorer – who was a doubt before the game due to a twisted ankle – had the chance to put his feet up before Sunday’s trip to Chelsea.
Guardiola had said before the game it was important they finished the job off and clinched a place in the last 16 at the earliest opportunity.
His team selection reflected that - although without key midfielder Rodri which might have had City’s fans sweating.
