Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has admitted that wants to win the Ballon d'Or in his career, but insisted that he was focused on winning trophies with his team.
The Norwegian striker has been in scintillating form since signing for City from Borussia Dortmund in the summer transfer window, registering 27 goals and three assists in 24 matches. Haaland has already broken several records with his spectacular performances this season, becoming the first player to score 20 Premier League goals before the turn of the year.
Haaland finished 11th in the Ballon d'Or rankings in 2021, with the 22-year-old recording 33 votes. He scored 41 goals in all competitions for Dortmund in that calendar year. The forward improved on his position the following year and finished in 10th place in 2022 - although many felt that he should have been higher.
