  ♥ Total Career Analysis (2015-2022):

Story of Erling Haaland

In addition to playing football as a child, Haaland played a variety of other sports as a child, including handball, golf, and track and field. He also reportedly set a world record in 2006 at the age of five with 1.63 meters.

When most players are still playing for his or her youth team at 15, Olin has already started his career at that age. In his first season with Bryan, Haaland played 16 games and impressed everyone. Soon after, the 16-year-old played 20 games for the club while scoring four times and providing just one assist.

Following his impressive outings within the Champions League, most the highest clubs in Europe wanted Erling to play for them. Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund are among the favourites to sign the 19-year-old. Both clubs needed a striker at the time. As a result, the two clubs engaged in a fierce struggle to sign the young talent. In the end, it was Borussia who won the battle by providing Erling with more playing time and securing his starting spot. Shockingly, the German club even sold Paco Alcace, their first-choice striker, to urge Harland to sign him away from home.

Jerseys Recommendation

HAALAND #9 Manchester City Jersey 2022/23 Home

The Manchester City home jersey 22-23 is slightly different from previous seasons - it combines Man City's traditional sky blue main color with maroon on the collar and sleeves ends. Both the collar and sleeve cuffs have a similar style, with two maroon rings surrounding a white one. The Puma and Etihad brandings have a dark blue color rather than matching those details.
