Erling Haaland couldn’t hide his delight as he poked fun at Youtuber and entrepreneur KSI as Manchester City won the Premier League title on Sunday.
The Gunners pushed Pep Guardiola‘s side until the final day of the season but had to settle for runners-up honours as City stormed to a record-breaking fourth consecutive Premier League title.
Haaland’s two years in England so far have rewarded him with six major honours across domestic and European competitions, with City still yet to play rivals Man United in the weekend’s FA Cup final.
The Norwegian enjoyed double celebrations as City were crowned Premier League champions as he also secured the golden boot award for the second successive year after scoring 27 league goals on the way to the title.
Media interactions are rare from Haaland who has become renowned for his no-nonsense approach to answering questions, but reserved a special message for KSI after sealing the league.

KSI is a self-confessed Arsenal supporter and even negotiated a deal with the Gunners to make his co-founded PRIME hydration drink an official sponsor for the club.
KSI and Logan Paul previously interviewed Haaland earlier in the season when the City superstar also announced he was becoming one of PRIME’s newest ambassadors.
The 23-year-old sent a video message to KSI reminding him that it wasn’t Arsenal’s year while drinking a bottle of prime in a secluded spot at the Etihad on Sunday.
‘KSI, it didn’t go [your way] this year either but it’s not only negative news. It’s a bit positive as well,’ he says while holding a bottle of the hydration drink up to the camera.

Haaland continues: ‘I’m popping this one, cheers, enjoy this bottle, it’s an amazing drink. Cheers mate have a nice evening.’
Fans were quick to jump on Haaland’s use of the word ‘bottle’ with some believing it relates to Arsenal surrendering their previous lead at the top of the table to Man City.
Social media flooded with reaction as one post on X hilariously stated: ‘Enjoy this Bottle. He knew what he was doing’.
Another similarly added: ‘Ain’t no way he said enjoy this bottle. That’s jokes man.’
