Erling Haaland chose the three players he most admires, Messi is not on his list

Erling Haaland is ready to break several career records. In his first season with Manchester City he has scored 48 goals in 40 games, this year he can win these championships, The Premier League, Champions League and the FA CUP. The Norwegian is considered the best striker in the world by experts.

Erling Haaland is the striker most feared today by rivals, this soccer player has caused a great impact since Borussia Dortmund and is now the new star of Manchester City, and is the current top scorer in the Premier League.

From a very young age Haaland has not had a great admiration for strikers who are great like Lionel Messi, Neymar Jr, Karim Benzema or Robert Lewandowski. Players that all the teams in the world want because of his great talent.

Erling has great admiration for these three forwards. The reason is because Haaland reflects on them and they have a lot of similarities to his style of play. These soccer players have inspired the Norwegian striker to have a brilliant career.

Haaland was inspired by these players

"Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Cristiano (Ronaldo) and Michu" are the strikers who inspire me and are my idols. Erling Haaland said in an interview conducted in 2021 when he was a Borussia Dortmund player.
