Haaland has arrived at the Etihad from Borussia Dortmund this summer and is expected to be a big hit in the Premier League after a stellar goal-scoring record in Germany, and Austria before that.
The 22-year-old scored 29 goals in 27 appearances for RB Salburg, earning his move to Dortmund where he netted 86 times in 89 games, which is why he now finds himself at the Premier League champions.
He has an awful long way to go to catch Aguero in his goal-scoring exploits for City, with the Argentinian netting 260 times for the club, but Foden says the Norwegian reminds him of his former teammate.
‘In front of goal he’s scary,’ Foden told Sky Sports. ‘Everyone knows his goal record, how many he scores, but he’s coming into a completely different league, much faster football so it might take him a little (while) to get used to, but I’m sure when he’s in his flow he’s going to be unstoppable.
‘Aguero is very similar. Haaland has got all different types of finishes as well.
‘Like I said he’s scary in front of goal and if we can get him the ball in the right areas he’s going to be really important for us this year.’
The England international says Haaland has quickly settled into life at Manchester City, endearing himself to his new teammates and showing that he is desperate to succeed.
‘Top guy off the pitch, he’s a great character, a great addition to the team,’ Foden said of the giant forward.
‘He makes everyone laugh and he’s dead humble, which is important when you come into a team.
‘He’s hungry to achieve things with us, so it can only mean good things.’
Haaland scored for the first time in a City shirt at the weekend in a friendly win over Bayern Munich and will get a chance to shine against Liverpool in the Community Shield on Saturday.
The Premier League champions get the defence of their title underway on 7 August with a trip to West Ham.
