'I'm starting to grow up now' - Erling Haaland addresses becoming a dad after revelation that girlfriend Isabell Haugseng Johansen is pregnant as Man City hitman breaks Norway's goal-scoring record

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/erling-haaland-girlfriend-isabell-haugseng-johansen-pregnancy-secret-team-mates-norway/bltd721d1c1781ffc83#csa4279bc11857aeea" target="_blank">Haaland revealed earlier this week that his girlfriend, Isabell Haugseng Johansen, is pregnant</a> by celebrating a record-breaking night with Norway by putting the ball under his shirt and sucking his thumb. Norway beat Slovenia 3-0 and in the process and Haaland scored a brace, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/erling-haaland-man-city-striker-norway-joint-all-time-top-scorer-slovenia/bltde897ff772fbed75" target="_blank">becoming Norway's all-time record goal-scorer with 34 goals in just 36 caps</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>After setting the record, Haaland was presented with a commemorative gift by his team-mates, and was encouraged to make a speech. The Manchester City striker made reference to the fact that he and his partner are expecting, claiming that he is finally growing up at the age of 24.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Haaland told his team-mates: "Thank you everybody. It is, of course, a big day for me. I have taken the record. It's huge, and I would like to thank everybody, the federation, the staff, and all the players. As I said, it's a big day, I'm also becoming a father now, so I'm starting to grow up now! It's amazing, I enjoy the time with everybody here, so we go again. We are on a good path now and I like it so thank you very much."</p>

WHAT HAALAND SAID

<p>Haaland is likely to set a goal-scoring record that cannot be reached at international level; Norway face Austria this weekend, giving the City star a chance to extend his lead at the top of the rankings.</p>
