Erling Haaland had a season to remember in his debut year with Manchester City. The striker scored 52 goals in 53 appearances this season. He broke the all-time Premier League goalscoring record for a single season with 36 goals. And it took him just his debut season to do that. Haaland was the top scorer in the Champions League as well with 12 goals.
Aside from the statistics, he has also helped City win a glorious treble. They have won the Champions League, their maiden title, the FA Cup, and the Premier League. Haaland is now seen as the only competition to Messi’s bid to win another Ballon d’Or. He has already won the UEFA Men’s Player of the Year award over Lionel Messi. And amidst the limelight, Erling Haaland’s girlfriend has made another public appearance.
Erling Haaland’s girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen: everything there is to know
Isabel Haugseng Johansen was confirmed to be the girlfriend of Haaland back in November 2022, when they were seen together vacationing in Marbella, Spain.
The 19-year-old originates from Haaland’s hometown in Bryne, Norway. Like her athletic partner, Isabel is a women’s professional footballer and plays for the Norwegian team Bryne Fotballklubb. Isabel is also a model alongside being a footballer.
In fact, in an article published by The Sun, both of them actually met coming through the ranks of the club. They had been friends for a decade but started dating when the striker was at Borussia Dortmund.
The pair like to keep their personal life secret, and added to the fact both are professionals, are seen very little together. The two started to be seen together, when Isabel started to see the striker’s games at Manchester City, sitting in the stands with Haaland’s family. This also shows that she is quite close with his family.
One of the couple’s most featured moments is during the UCL final, where she celebrated the title win along with Haaland. A romantic photo of the two also became viral and was the first introduction to many fans of the Norwegian star’s girlfriend. Since then, Erling Haaland’s girlfriend has made many other public appearances.
The pair were also seen together enjoying a vacation together in the south of France after last season.
