Cracks of the future: Erling Haaland assembles an ideal Soccer 5 outfit with promising youngsters

For many, Erling Haaland will be the new star of world football. The Norwegian broke it during his time at Salzburg and has had an outstanding performance at Borussia Dortmund.

But he will not be the only heir to the throne. In conversation with ESPN UK, Haaland starred in a very interesting exercise: assembling his ideal team of 5 footballers considering only youth talents.

For goal, the Norwegian chose AC Milan’s goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. For the defense he chose the Dutch Matthijs de Ligt. In the creation zone he put Jadon Sancho, his teammate at Borussia Dortmund and on offense placed himself alongside the French Kylian Mbappé. A great outfit from the future.

The 19-year-old Norwegian has 40 goals and 6 assists in the 33 games he has played this season. He broke it with Salzburg in the first half and is now taking his career to the next level with Borussia Dortmund.
