Haaland then added two more goals to complete his treble and secure three points at the Etihad Stadium.
“He’s been really good,” said Haaland when speaking about Savinho. “Of course he has to learn English but his football skills, everyone can see it.
“So it’s about keep on improving, because to play to together and everything.
“But you can already see the qualities he has. He got a penalty and an assist today.
“He’s going to be really good for us.”
The striker also revealed what he does with his match balls from all his 10 City hat-tricks, and spoke about the return of Ilkay Gundogan to the Club.
