Erling Haaland not only succeeds on the pitch — his goalscoring exploits have helped put Manchester City on the verge of yet another title — but also in his personal life. According to some reports, the Nordic forward is experiencing a good run in the game of love.
Meet Isabel Haugseng Johansen
As reported by English tabloid The Sun, for some months now the 22-year-old forward has been involved in a romantic relationship with Isabel Haugseng Johansen. Below, we share a little about the player’s new partner.
Erling and Isabel have kept their relationship rather secretive, so there isn’t much information doing the rounds about the record-breaking net botherer. According to the aforementioned outlet, however, Isabel is an 18-year-old athlete, and has an active social media account for interested followers. After all, there’s plenty of intrigue both on and off the field of play for modern stars.
Erling and Isabel share soccer love
Like Haaland, Johansen has a passion for soccer and she has established herself as a young star of Norway. Currently, she is a member of the Bryne Fotballklubb first team.
The relationship between Isabel Haugseng Johansen and Erling Haaland
According to The Sun, Haaland and Johansen actually met through the Bryne Fotballklubb. Initially, they established a friendly relationship, however, after several years of friendship, emotions intensified and they decided to take the next step.
Sources cited by the paper stated that Haaland apparently wanted someone in his life with whom he could feel comfortable, who was down to earth, and someone he could trust completely.
“Erling has the world at his feet and women are lining up to be his date, but he’s a very down-to-earth guy and it makes perfect sense for him to be with a girl from his hometown whom he has known for years,” the source reportedly said. “He needs to be able to trust the people in his life and just focus on football.”
