Bernardo Silva believes Erling Haaland is the only player he’s ever seen that gets close to the standards of compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Manchester City and Portugal star has a unique viewpoint of the two prolific marksmen, as one of the few players to have lined up with both. Haaland’s stunning start to life in Manchester has quickly drawn comparisons with 37-year-old Ronaldo, who last week chalked up the 700th goal of his club career.
Silva accepts that there is a long way to go before his club team-mate can be put on equal footing with his international one. However, he does believe that the young Norwegian is already on the right trajectory.
