Former Manchester City winger Mark Kennedy has backed striker Erling Haaland to become the club's new captain, praising his leadership qualities and drive.
Ce qu'il faut retenir
- Erling Haaland is the perfect candidate to take on the Manchester City captaincy role.
- Enzo Maresca is yet to name the new club captain as City start their pre-season tour.
- Haaland's role as a forward affects his chances of being named captain because forwards are less involved in organizing the team from the back.
Former Manchester City winger Mark Kennedy has backed striker Erling Haaland to become the club's new captain, praising his leadership qualities and drive. Manchester City have departed for their pre-season tour of Hong Kong and Seoul, but manager Enzo Maresca has not yet named a permanent captain. While Haaland captained the side on occasion during the 2024-25 season, Kennedy notes that playing as a forward can sometimes limit a captain's defensive organization role compared to midfielders or defenders.
