Erling Haaland has been withdrawn from his scheduled media duties with the Norway national team as the fallout from Manchester City's financial case continues. The striker was expected to address the press ahead of a Nations League fixture, but officials have now made a late change to the line-up.
Denmark manager Brian Riemer has labelled Erling Haaland the premier striker in world football after the Manchester City superstar inspired Norway to a 3-2 Nations League victory. The Danish coach admitted that his side struggled to contain the clinical forward, who proved to be the difference-maker during a tightly contested Scandinavian derby in Oslo.
Erling Haaland continues to redefine the limits of modern goalscoring after another masterclass for Norway against Denmark. The Manchester City striker took his international tally to a staggering 64 goals in just 56 caps, prompting manager Stale Solbakken to describe his natural ability as something that simply cannot be coached.
