Erling Haaland Picks His Dream 5-a-Side Team – And His Choices Might Surprise You!
Manchester City’s super-striker Erling Haaland has just shared his dream 5-a-side team, and it’s a lineup that’s got fans talking! With his incredible goal-scoring record, Haaland is a shoo-in for most people’s dream team, but he decided to leave himself out and instead picked a team that’s all about defensive solidity and attacking flair.
First up, Haaland chose Iker Casillas in goal – but with a twist. He joked that if Ederson could shoot, he’d score 15 goals a season! That’s a bold claim, but you have to admit, Ederson is a great keeper with some sweet skills.
In defense, Haaland went for Italian legend Paolo Maldini, saying he’s "just to (defend)" – no more explanation needed there! The rest of the back four? Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Ronaldinho – that’s some serious star power!
The big question is, would this team actually work? Would Messi and Ronaldo be able to coexist and lead the line, with Haaland providing the width and Maldini holding down the fort at the back? It’s an intriguing team, to say the least. And who knows, maybe Haaland’s move to Manchester City has rubbed off on him, as he showed a wry sense of humor and a willingness to poke fun at his teammates.

And while we’re on the subject of superstars, the GOAT debate continues to rage on. When asked if Messi had to retire for him to win the Ballon d’Or, Haaland replied simply, "I don’t know, good question." He didn’t shy away from acknowledging Messi’s incredible achievements, saying, "He is the best that has ever played, I think."
