Inside Haaland's rise to the top

Sports Brief had earlier reported that Haaland's rise to the top has been mercurial and quick. At barely 22 years of age, he is already dominating lists of the best strikers in the world with his ridiculous statistics in front of goal a clear testament of his vast potential.

The Manchester City star has been featured as the British GQ cover for the month of January. He has lifted the lid on a couple of issues as the Citizens folklore looks towards him to break the Champions League curse.

The Norwegian has built a reputation of 'ghosting' during games but the minimal touches he gets are usually devastating. His muscular frame has so far proven to be imposing to the abrasive and quick Premier League defenders.
