Giovanni Galli suggests that if he were in Pep Guardiola's shoes, he would consider allowing Erling Haaland to leave Manchester City in favor of signing Dusan Vlahovic.
Galli argues that Vlahovic, despite not having the same level of success as Haaland since their moves to Juventus and City respectively, has qualities that make him worthy of consideration. He believes that Vlahovic's performance could be even more prolific if he played in a team like Manchester City, which creates more scoring opportunities.
The pundit acknowledges Haaland's status as one of the best strikers globally but emphasizes Vlahovic's potential in a more attacking team.
“Maybe it may seem like a provocation to you, but for me, it’s not that much of a provocation: if I were [Pep] Guardiola and they told me, ‘You would make the exchange between [Dusan] Vlahovic and [Erling] Haaland’, I would do it easily. Dusan has nothing to envy the Norwegian,“ he told Tuttosport, via Manchester City News.
"I’d like to see him [Vlahovic] in a more attacking team. If he were at Manchester City, he would also score 50 goals a season like Haaland. I’m sure," he added.
Some may find Galli's suggestion surprising given Haaland's proven track record and superior performance compared to Vlahovic, despite the latter's technical skills. The pundit's preference may be subjective or influenced by recent performances, but it raises questions about the reasoning behind his opinion.
