- Since the photo surfaced online, demand for Y-fronts has risen bizarrely
- Analysts looking for the “hottest” items found the pants at the top of the pile
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland seems to have inadvertently started a new trend, with one particular photo skyrocketing sales of Y fronts.
Haaland was caught in the City dressing room alongside Noel Gallagher after his side’s win over Arsenal on April 26, but posed with the rock star in his pants.
Oddly enough, demand for the smalls has increased since the photo hit social media, boosting sales by a whopping 45 percent.
Bosses of TOFS, a department store chain with more than 200 stores in the UK, revealed that the shelves have been ‘stripped’ thanks to Haaland.
Indeed, analysts looking for the “hottest” items found that Y fronts were at the top of the pile.

Manchester City striker Haaland has made an unintentional impact on menswear this season
The superstar pays close attention to his diet and follows a strict regimen on and off the pitch
TOFS’ chief merchandising officer has revealed the extent of Haaland’s influence.
“Y-fronts have historically faced strong competition from boxer shorts, but Haaland has sparked a renewed interest in this traditional menswear,” said Tracy Ford.
22-year-old Haaland openly donned the classic type of underwear earlier this season, forcing supporters to look the other way. He posed for the photo in his rolled-up Calvin Kleins while also holding a signature spinach and kale smoothie.
Gallagher later provided insight into his conversation with the frontman in shape.
“I’ve just been in the dressing room with him and he’s like a young kid,” he said.
“He walks around in his underpants and tells me he can’t wait for me to meet his uncle, who I’ve never met.
He’s disappointed he didn’t score a hat-trick. He’s like a big, angry kid. He’s an incredible footballer.’
Haaland’s questionable choice of underwear is the latest example of his brash, outlandish style. Previously, he lifted the lid on his rigorous healthy diet.

Earlier, he revealed a bizarre diet of heart and liver that has helped him maintain his standards
The 22-year-old also revealed that he only drinks water through a complicated filtration system
To stay in peak condition, the Ace consumes 6,000 calories a day and feasts on cow heart and liver. He also only drinks water through a filtration system and makes sure he’s exposed to sunlight in the morning to support his “circadian rhythm.”
He also regularly takes an ice bath and filters blue light to improve his sleep.
So far this season the red-hot Haaland has scored 52 goals from 49 appearances and helped propel his side to the top of a sensational treble.
City need just one more win to win the Premier League, having reached both the Champions League and FA Cup finals.
