Erling Haaland Worth Just Under Four Times More Than WHOLE Watford Squad Ahead Of EFL Cup Clash

Erling Haaland is worth almost four times more than the whole Watford side, as Manchester City welcome the Championship club in the EFL Cup.

Manchester City will be looking to continue their run in the EFL Cup as Pep Guardiola’s side welcome Watford to the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday evening.

The Premier League champions were involved in a dramatic 2-2 draw with Arsenal in their last fixture, as John Stones scored a 98th minute equaliser against the 10-men Gunners.

The Cityzens are yet to lose a match in the 2024/25 campaign so far, but have drawn their last two matches in all competitions.

However, City will be huge favourites going into this EFL Cup clash, as they face Watford who are currently eighth in the Championship.

Tom Cleverley’s side have been struggling to find form in recent weeks, picking up just one point in their last three league matches and were beaten 4-1 by Norwich most recently.

The disparity in quality between both sides can be seen clearly when comparing their squad values, as Erling Haaland alone is worth almost four times more than the whole Hornets squad.
