The royal couple is on a county tour in Møre and Romsdal, but in between the program King Harald has managed to get Erling Braut Haaland’s second hat trick in as many games for Manchester City. – He probably needs a new hat, joked King Harald to NTB. Jærbuen has taken the Premier League by storm after nine goals in the first five games after the transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City. No one else in history has scored so many goals in such a short time before him. – He is a special, great footballer, added the king about Haaland. Erling Braut Haaland has found the tone with City manager Pep Guardiola. The 22-year-old has scored a hat trick in two games.

Photo: Lise Åserud / NTB The king has previously stated that he follows Tottenham a little extra. The king is very interested in sports and has actively participated in the WC and Olympics in sailing several times. Together with Martin Ødegaard, Haaland was among the most prominent players in England in August. – We have to bear in mind that during the “drillo period” there were even more Norwegian footballers who established themselves in the English top division, so it is nothing new. But now it’s coming again. We have a new, young generation that is on the way up. – Perhaps Norway has never seen such a great player as Haaland? – No, I don’t think there are many people in the world who have seen it either, said King Harald. He points out that Norway does not only have goalscorers. – We also have several women, don’t forget them. On Wednesday, Jærbuen scored his second hat trick in a row. On Saturday, Aston Villa awaits away from home for Haaland and co. before Sevilla is the first opponent in the Champions League group stage three days later. ALSO READ:
