Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic among my idols as a child: Erling Haaland

Dortmund: Borussia Dortmund’s rising young star Erling Haaland has said that Juventus’ Cristiano Ronaldo and AC Milan’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic were among his idols growing up.

“I had a lot of idols as a child. I have to mention two players: Cristiano Ronaldo and Zlatan Ibrahimovic,” the club’s official website quoted Haaland as saying.

“Always stay hungry. Always be on the lookout for goals and balls,” he said.

Asked how he is spending his time during the pandemic, Haaland said: “I coach and meditate a lot, and play FIFA with the guys.”

German Football League (DFL) Chief Executive Christian Seifert has said that it is hoping to restart league football in the country on May 9 provided they get the green light from the country’s government. IANS
