Erling Haaland has had an incredible debut season with Manchester City as they are close to securing a historic treble.

The striker has scored 52 goals this season, helping the Citizens secure the Premier League and FA Cup trophy. One more emphatic performance from the Norway international could bring Man City their first ever Champions League trophy.

Over the course of his short career, the 22-year-old has changed his hairstyles a few times. From shorter hair at Molde to flowing locks in Manchester, Haaland is not one to worry about his hair.

The Sporting News looks at the different ways Haaland has styled his hair over the years.
