Early Life
Erling Haaland was born in Leeds, England, in the year 2000, during the time that his father played for Leeds United. After working his way up through the ranks at the local club Bryne, Alf-Inge Haaland ultimately decided to make the move to England seven years earlier. In 2004, when he was only three years old, the family relocated to Bryne, Norway, the hometown of his parents.
As a youth, Haaland participated in a wide variety of other sports in addition to football. He played handball, and golf. However, he started playing football at a young age. He supposedly set a world record for his age group in the standing long jump with a distance of 1.63 meters in 2006.
Career
At the age of five, Erling Haaland began his soccer training at the academy of his hometown club, Bryne. He played for Bryne’s reserve squad during the 2015–2016 season and was impressive, scoring eighteen goals in fourteen appearances. In 2016, Bryne’s manager Gaute Larsen left, and youth coach Berntsen took over as caretaker boss. He had previously worked closely with Haaland in other youth teams, gave the fifteen-year-old player his first start three months before he became sixteen years old.
In February 2017, Molde announced the signing of Haaland, who was 16 years old then. Haaland would in 2018 lead his team to a 4–0 victory over Brann, who was the unbeaten leader of the league at the time. Haaland scored all four of his team’s goals in the first 21 minutes of the match. He got The Eliteserien Breakthrough of the Year award in recognition of his achievements in the 2018 season. As the 2018 campaign came to a close, he was Molde’s leading goalscorer.
Then, Red Bull Salzburg, the reigning champions of the Austrian Bundesliga announced Haaland would join the team on January 1, 2019. He signed a five-year contract. Then, on December 29, 2019, Borussia Dortmund announced that they signed Haaland for a fee of €20 million. This was a four and a half years contract.
Erling Haaland debuted for Dortmund in January 2020 on the road against FC Augsburg. He entered the game as a second-half substitute and scored a hat trick in the first 23 minutes of play. In another twist, after activating his €60 million (£51.2 million) release clause, Manchester City, announced the player’s signing in May 2022. He said his goodbyes to the club at the Westfalenstadion before Dortmund’s last game of the season, against Hertha BSC.
