Erling Braut Haaland has previously expressed great admiration for Swedish attack star Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
“He had a lot of role models and he admired a lot of footballers, but Zlatan is the greatest of all,” Haaland said in the Daily Mail last fall, and recently called the Swede his “biggest idol” during a question session with his fans. .
Now he is compared to the Norwegian with his role model of 38 years.
“He is a modern Ibrahimovic,” Stanislav Macek, who worked with Haaland for a short time in Salzburg, told AS.
Haaland is celebrated, compared to Zlatan
But Macek not only puts Haaland on the same level as Zlatan, he also sees the potential for his game to reach even further.
– I would say it is much better in its movement pattern, faster. He has a tremendous mindset on how he will handle the games and the entire profession.
The Slovak coach believes that discipline and a willingness to work are an important reason for Haaland’s rapid development.
– When I was in Salzburg, everyone talked about how hard I was training just to improve. He said he does 1,000 sit-ups and 300 push-ups at home every day.
– He works like a true professional, even though he is very young. When he first came to Salzburg, he barely played, but now he gets all the attention.
