Borussia Dortmund striker, Erling Haaland, has admitted that he still has a long way to be compared to Barcelona’s Lionel Messi and Juventus’s Cristiano Ronaldo.
Haaland also identified Messi and Ronaldo as the best players of all time.
The Norway international, however, said that he has to improve a lot to reach the level of either Messi or Ronaldo.
Haaland said this whilst away on international duty with Norway ahead of their World Cup qualifier tie against Gibraltar on Wednesday.
“The media are the ones who write about it [and compare me with Messi and Ronaldo], I don’t focus on those things,” Haaland told reporters during his pre-match press conference on Monday.
“I want to improve every day. Ronaldo and Messi, I don’t need to talk about them, they are the best of all time.
“They are still very far away.”
Haaland has scored 33 goals in 30 matches in all competitions for Dortmund so far this season.
The 20-year-old has drawn the attention of top clubs around Europe.
