Richard Dunne has told Sky Sports – as per Football Daily – that Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland would be the “perfect” signing to replace Sergio Aguero, who has been confirmed as leaving the club this summer, when his contract ends.

Aguero, 32, is out of contract in June. The Argentine, who won 10 trophies including four Premier League titles during his time at Manchester City and is responsible for one of the most-dramatic moments of top-flight football, will leave when his deal ends.

A replacement is required for a player that has scored 257 goals in 384 appearances for City. Haaland, 20, continues to be linked having netted a whopping 33 goals in 31 games this season at Dortmund – and in total, 49 in 49.

Asked if the Norwegian, who earns £98,000 a week at Dortmund (90Min), would be ideal for Man City – Dunne joked he would score six goals a game at The Etihad. Dunne also claimed that Haaland has the same mentality as Aguero, and would fit well.
