After seeing Julian win the World Cup with Messi, what De Bruyne said that Haaland won't like
Kevin de Bruyne's words after watching teammate win World Cup in Qatar
Julian Alvarez has been in the spotlight after being crowned world champion with Argentina. The striker arrived at Qatar 2022 as an interesting attacking option and ended up taking Lautaro Martinez's place as the team's starting center forward, scoring four goals in the entire tournament.
In that sense, the player has established himself in a great way in the competition and for this reason, from Manchester City, they are already rubbing their hands in his return after winning the World Cup. Such is the case of captain Kevin De Bruyne, who spoke about what it means to see Julian win the trophy for the team.

According to De Bruyne, everyone at Manchester City has been aware of Julian Alvarez's talent since he arrived at the club in 2022. However, it fills them with pride to have a world champion in the squad and hopes that he will be a real contribution to the club's goals for next season. In that sense, Alvarez could threaten Haaland's starting place in Manchester.
Will Guardiola sit Haaland?
It is highly unlikely that the Norwegian will not start, due to the fact that he is the great reference in attack for the Citizens. However, Guardiola will have to find the key for Julian Alvarez to get important minutes and not interrupt his projection as one of soccer's new stars. A change of formation is not out of the question.
