From the source

With Erling Haaland seemingly breaking Manchester City and Premier League goalscoring records on a monthly basis, a new centre-forward has not looked like one of the club’s most pressing needs.

But the recruitment team, led by sporting director Hugo Viana, cannot afford to wait for a gap to open before they plan to fill it; the search for the next elite young striker has not stopped.

That search has reportedly now taken City scouts to Belgium, where one of the season’s breakout forwards has caught the eye of several European heavyweights.
