It didn’t take long for ERLING HAALAND to make a name for himself in the Premier League, and he’s rather delectable in front of goal, but some critics sᴀʏ he’s too ᴘᴀsᴛʏ to swim.

Until Manchester City shared these photos from a team recovery session, the Norwegian made every other striker look like a lightweight.

Haaland’s shockingly white face and torso sent shockwaves across his fan base as he relaxed in a pool with a broad grin.

Despite a spectacular introduction to life in England, it appears that beach vacations have failed to brighten his disposition.

Haaland’s fair skin stood out against his teammates’ tans in a photo of them doing stretches.

As people’s reactions shocked the internet, one onlooker quipped, “kept on wiping it, thought it was my screen.”

An additional participant remarked, “I thought I had sensitive media turned off.”

The nickname “Iceman” was also applied to Haaland, and one fan even uploaded a photo of a man blinded by a brilliant white light.

It was also mentioned that the 22-year-old’s flawless physique is a major factor in his success in the Premier League.

Photos taken 24 hours after his initial pale appearance aroused concerns that he might have a foot ɪɴᴊᴜʀʏ, exhaustion, or a fever.

Haaland’s demeanor during City’s 0-0 Champions League draw with Borussia Dortmund, his former club, was unusually restrained for him.

However, Etihad manager Pep Guardiola thinks Haaland can finish the season strong if he behaves himself over the break.

He will be in Marbella and Norway, Guardiola said.

His performance in Marbella will determine how well the second half of the season goes for him.

I’m sure he’d enjoy representing Norway at the World Cup, and I’m crossing my fingers that he can make it to the next competition.

However, he owns a home in Marbella and will most likely visit there.

He plans to play golf and, ideally, won’t overindulge in food so that he can return to league play in top form.
