The attacker has been a huge surprise package in the Champions League this season
Erling Braut Haaland is in the form of his life at present. He might be an unknown player to most people because he does not play in one of the top five leagues. He plays for RB Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga. The teenager is showing up and ruining the party for the boys in Austria.

With 27 goals and 7 assists in 20 matches across all competitions, the young Norwegian is a beast in front of goal. Another amazing fact about the in-form attacker is that he’s had 8 goals already in 5 matches in the Champions League. Belittle Haaland and his Salzburg team at your peril.
He’s definitely going to be in one of the top leagues soon. Very soon if he keeps up this thrilling performance. At just 19 years of age, he still has a long way to go, but at the rate that he’s going, it won’t be long before he has the football world at his feet.
