On the success with his country he added: ‘Norway is a small, small nation, 5.5 million, I think less.
So we are not a great nation. But again you see at the World Cup small nations doing fantastic things.
‘We hope to qualify (in 2026), that’s my biggest goal with them. Hopefully one day I can play knockout matches with Norway.
Haaland’s famous goal celebration spawned many imitators, including from the PSG side.
Haaland focuses on the mental side of the game more intensely than most. A few years ago, he drew attention for what has become his trademark goal celebration: getting into a lotus position and closing his eyes, as if he were in a meditative trance.
The celebration spawned a wave of imitators, including from the Paris Saint-Germain team in a Champions League match.
Haaland speaking about meditation said: ‘I think it’s a really good thing.
‘To relax, to try not to think too much. Because stress is not good for anyone. I hate being stressed, and I try not to be stressed. But the concept of meditation is trying to let go of these kinds of thoughts. It’s really individual, but for me it’s worked very well.
