New Manchester City midfielder Elliot Anderson has laughed off Erling Haaland’s ‘diver’ jibes as he reveals that his new team-mate has been helping him settle in.
Haaland has jokingly referred to Anderson as a diver on social media after seeing a goal disallowed during Norway’s World Cup quarter-final against England for a push at a set-piece.
The two were reunited on Wednesday as they reported back for City training after their summer exploits, and Anderson says they have been getting on well.
“He has been calling me a diver, hasn’t he? It was funny. He has been really good today and has helped me settle in.”
