The city is one win away from collecting the prize that has evaded it time and again in recent years.
After a productive first season at the Etihad Stadium, Haaland has been crucial to their recent run to the final, where they meet Inter Milan in Istanbul on Saturday.
Since signing him from Borussia Dortmund for £51 million last year, the Norwegian has scored 52 goals in all competitions.
Before I arrived, they won the Premier League twice, said Haaland. This team knows how to win the Premier League.
The only thing they are missing right now is the Champions League. I've been coming here for a reason - you can read between the lines.
Haaland contributed to City winning three titles in a row and set a Premier League record with 36 goals. The next weekend, they followed it up by winning the FA Cup.
Manchester City is now seeking to become just the second team to win the treble, joining their rival Manchester United in making history.

Since I can remember Erling Haaland winning the Champions League, I have been daydreaming about and contemplating it.
Haaland would therefore accomplish a lifetime ambition of his—winning the Champions League.
There is still room for improvement - Erling Haaland
The 22-year-old stated, "I have been daydreaming and thinking about it my entire life. For as long as I can remember, which is a very long time, it has been my dream. Of course, I've been considering this. We still have one game left, and we must play well. We have been doing it for a large number of consecutive games lately. It's about trying.
Haaland's game has improved under Pep Guardiola, whom he refers to as a "detail freak," but he thinks there is still room for improvement.
Every day is extremely delightful for me because of Pep. It's great.
As a young person, I have a fantastic opportunity to work with top-notch coaches and athletes.
