Erling Haaland has displayed extraordinary form over the past seasons, driven also by Manchester City’s brilliant performances.
The Norwegian striker continues to write history with his goals and his ability to decide matches, but he will soon face a very intriguing challenge.
The upcoming clash promises spectacle, as this Wednesday at the “Santiago Bernabéu” the great duel of modern football will return: Kylian Mbappé versus Erling Haaland.
Real Madrid and Man City will measure their strength in a new context, in the group stage of the Champions League.
What hasn’t changed is the exceptional form of the two stars. Haaland and Mbappé arrive as two of the top scorers of the season, decisive players for their teams, even though their clubs are no longer dominating as they once did.
A clash of stars
This match raises once again the question: which of them will dominate football?
Another battle in the long race toward the Ballon d’Or, an award that, interestingly, both have missed in the last two editions.
The 25-year-old Norwegian is breaking new records in the Premier League and with his national team, while the Frenchman is shining just as brightly in Spain.
But the biggest challenge for Haaland will be proving himself precisely against the club that has dreamed of signing him for years.
His recent performances against Real Madrid have been disappointing, and this match is a golden opportunity to change the narrative.
