Last week, it was reported that the Norway international could become a realistic option for Los Blancos due to the forward's general discontent in Manchester.

It was also said the prolific goalscorer is eager to reunite with friend and former Borussia Dortmund teammate Jude Bellingham, with Haaland reportedly also believing playing for the 14-time European winners could improve his chances of claiming prestigious individual accolades.

Guardiola, however, does not think the 23-year-old has had issues adapting to life in England.

"I don't know, you have to ask the media from Madrid," he said, according to the Daily Mirror.

"Maybe they have more information than we have. I don’t  we don't – have that feeling that he's unhappy.

"He was [unhappy] because he could not play for two months because he was injured, but maybe the media from Spain  and especially Madrid  have more information than us.

"We cannot say he didn't adapt quickly and he was not fine since he arrived  just the level he showed since he arrived on day one. But we cannot control what people say.

"What's important is that he's happy. And when he's unhappy, he will make his decision."
