It’s no secret that Erling Haaland has a special place in his heart for Leeds United and it seems he’s also eager to mark the occasion of playing against his boyhood club by showing off his new ‘Viking’-inspired hairstyle.
The 22-year-old was born in West Yorkshire, but his blood is purely Norwegian and Manchester City’s power forward has ditched the ponytail for a new braided style.

On his Twitter account, the former Borussia Dortmund forward wrote: ‘Viking mode ON #mancity’, along with an image of his preparation for the match at Elland Road.
After scoring 18 goals in his first 13 Premier League games, some may suggest not changing anything, but it seems Alfie Haaland’s son is happy to defy superstitions – at least when it comes to his hair!
