He may have only been in England for around two months, but Erling Haaland is well and truly mocking the newspapers at the moment.
The Norway international arrived from Borussia Dortmund in early June, after Manchester City completed a £52 million move for the striker.
After heading out on pre-season with his new teammates, Haaland scored his first goal for the club in a 0-1 win over Bayern Munich, before returning to England this week.

But during a moment of downtime before resuming training at the City Football Academy on Tuesday, Haaland and his family have been exploring Manchester, once again doing their weekly shop.
Earlier this month, one newspaper was keen to analyse a shop in Sainsbury's, pricing up every item spotted in the Manchester City number nine's trolley.
That didn't go unnoticed, as Alfie Haaland - the father of Erling - was keen to mock the report on his own social media.
This time, it's Erling Haaland's turn, as he took to Twitter to poke fun at media reports invading his personal life.

The 22 year-old opened with a selfie in one supermarket captioned, "Went shopping today again! What did i buy? Anyone?"
This was swiftly followed up with Haaland revealing that he had visited M&S to purchase a bag of the iconic sweet range, Percy Pigs.
He tweeted, "(At M&S) Bought a bag of Percy Pig (don't tell anyone)"

We can now reveal, as per the M&S official website, that Erling Haaland may have spent upwards of £3 on his bag of Percy Pig.
It remains uncertain as to what else the former RB Salzburg man purchased during his trip.
However, it has already been revealed - and we're being deadly serious here - that Haaland visited the popular Indian restaurant chain, Dishoom in Manchester city centre earlier on Monday.
'Man eats curry', the headline might as well read.

Haaland will be hoping to silence all the supermarket-focused critics this weekend, as he goes in search of his first piece of silverware in a Manchester City shirt.
