He loves his team-mates, the fans, etc. He also loves living here, which is important. I don’t think Erling will be going anywhere for a while, the former striker turned manager continued. I know his family have a plan for him. I don’t know what it is. What I can say, knowing him as I do, is that he wants to be here, and for a long time.
