The most talked about forward in world football since the start of the new football season across the top five leagues in Europe has to be Erling Haaland after his recent run in front of goal for Manchester City.
Haaland has scored ten goals in just six games in the English Premier League in what is his first season in the English Premier League following his move from German side Borussia Dortmund in the summer.
So it comes across as a huge compliment when a forward is compared to the Norwegian when it comes to making deadly move around the box, especially when it comes from an established player like David Silva.
Silva who is now teammates to Nigeria international forward Sadiq Umar at Real Sociedad believes the Nigerian carries same threat like Haaland who is the lead striker for his former team Manchester City.
” You ask my opinion and I will say he is improving in all aspects of his game. Same as Haaland? I don’t like to compare players but he can be as deadly in the box. Very composed and knows where to be making it easy but it isn’t if you attempt it”, he said.
