Erling Haaland is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Premier League club Manchester City and the Norway national team. Considered one of the best players in the world, and the greatest Norwegian player ever, he is known for his speed, strength, positioning, and finishing inside the box.

Haaland began his senior career with Bryne and Molde before signing with Red Bull Salzburg in 2019, where he won the Austrian Bundesliga and Austrian Cup. He joined Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund in 2020, where he won the DFB-Pokal in 2021. In 2022, Haaland transferred to Manchester City for a fee of €60 million (£51.2 million) and won the continental treble in his debut campaign: he set the record for most goals scored by a player in a Premier League season (36) and most goals by a Premier League player in all competitions in one season (52), winning the Premier League Golden Boot, European Golden Shoe and the Gerd Müller Trophy. He was named UEFA Men's Player of the Year, IFFHS World's Best Player, and finished runner-up in the Ballon d'Or. Haaland ranks as Manchester City's fourth-highest all-time top goalscorer.

Haaland has won several individual awards and holds numerous records: he is the only player to win Premier League Young Player and Player of the Season in one season. He won the 2020 Golden Boy, was named Bundesliga Player of the Season in 2021, and was included in the FIFA FIFPro World11 for 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. He has scored the most goals in a Premier League season and is the quickest player to score eight hat-tricks.

Haaland represented Norway at youth level, winning the Golden Boot at the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup, where he scored a record nine goals in a single match. He made his senior international debut for Norway in 2019, and has since scored 55 goals in 48 appearances, making him Norway's all-time top goalscorer. Haaland is the fastest player to reach 50 international goals, doing so in just 46 games.
