Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has described the season as a catastrophic one for the club.
City failed to defend their Premier League title but still remain on course to qualify for the UEFA Champions League as they sit third on the log with 65 points from 36 games.
The 24-year-old believes the Manchester outfit have not had enough hunger throughout the campaign but aims to change that ahead of the 2025-26 season.
“You can find excuses in all of this – injuries, many injuries and at bad times – but in the end we haven’t been performing well enough,” the Norwegian said to The Daily Mail.
“We haven’t had the hunger inside of us. I haven’t been good enough, I haven’t helped the team enough.
“The club has set standards, and the bar is so high, which means this season is a catastrophic season – that says it all. Next season, we need to find something inside our stomach again to attack the season.”
The Norway international, who has netted 30 goals in his 41 games across all competitions, will be hoping to end the season on a high as they prepare for the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace on Saturday.
