ERLING HAALAND celebrated Manchester City’s 4-0 victory over Bournemouth by jetting off to sunny Marbella.
The 21-year-old superstar enjoyed a dip in the sea on Sunday while holidaying in the Spanish seaside resort.

But with City back in action away at Newcastle on Sunday, Haaland won’t have too much downtime on his hands.
The Norwegian international will also be hoping to be more involved when he returns for the clash against the Magpies at the weekend.
Haaland touched the ball just eight times and completed two passes in Saturday’s win over Bournemouth.
Although one of those passes was an assist for Ilkay Gundogan’s opener.
The other being the the kick-off at the start of the second half.
Haaland did net an impressive double in City’s opening win away at West Ham, and a relaxing break could be exactly what he needed to help him come back with a bang on Sunday.
