Jamie Carragher believes that Manchester City's capture of striker Erling Haaland is brilliant news for the Premier League but admits his signing asks 'questions' of their tactical approach.
Pep Guardiola has been on the search for a top level striker since the departure of Sergio Aguero at the end of last season and after the Sky Blues announced on Tuesday that they have agreed a deal in principle with Borussia Dortmund, one of Europe's most in-demand strikers appears to be on his way to the Premier League next season.
Norwegian Haaland has scored 36 goals in 34 appearances for club and country this season and television pundit Carragher can't wait to see what he can do in English football.

Speaking on Sky Sports ahead of Liverpool's trip to Aston Villa, he said: "Brilliant signing, it really is. Not just for Man City, but for the Premier League. I think we're all intrigued to see how he'll do. Him and [Kylian] Mbappe feel like the next two superstars who are going to eclipse Messi and Ronaldo and you're just delighted that he's at the Premier League. More often than not, those type of players have gone to maybe a Barcelona or a Real Madrid, but I feel like now that the Premier League is the strongest league. You've seen how well we'll done in the Champions League.
"He'll score goals, that's what he's been bought to do, but it doesn't guarantee that City will win everything. You still have to integrate him into the team. That means City will lose another creative player that helps them keep the ball more or have more control in games. There's lots of questions that I'm already thinking of myself. We'll be analysing his performances and how he fits it, but they had a world class striker in Sergio Aguero and they've got another one now."
