The Manchester City striker could cross paths with Italy in the 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign.
If he stacks goals like pearls in a club, Erling Haaland has still not participated in a major international tournament with his nation. The Manchester City striker will perhaps have the opportunity since Norway will compete in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
A clear objective for the Norwegian star, who could cross Italy in this campaign. On the side of the Nazionale, Luciano Spalletti did not hide his fear.
Spalletti already fears Haaland
“I don’t know if it’s a good draw or not. We’ll see when we play. In my opinion, there are well-armed teams in both groups that we could find ourselves in. I know Ciccio (Francesco) Calzona very well, who was my assistant in Naples, and who with Slovakia would have deserved better against England during the Euro”said the coach.
“It is always difficult to win matches. The pressure will be greater, there is no denying it. We must not hide and we must always face reality. And like I said, Norway has strong players like Haaland. There are always pitfalls », concluded Spalletti.
