Rio Ferdinand compared Manchester City's Erling Haaland with Cristiano Ronaldo

During his first season in England, Erling Haaland took the Premier League by storm. He scored 36 goals in the EPL, a record in a 38-match season. Apart from that, Haaland also netted 12 times in the UEFA Champions League.

Haaland led the way to Manchester City's triumphant campaign. Rio Ferdinand went on to compare the Norwegian's mentality to that of Cristiano Ronaldo. Speaking on the matter, Ferdinand said (via Eurosport):

"It’s the mindset. I mean, that’s the separator. That separates the good from the great. This guy is going to be relentless, you can see it. I see shades of Cristiano in the mentality."

He added:

"When you look in his eyes it’s not just about selfish me wanting to be the focal point and score every single goal and every ball has to come to me. He’s about the functionality of the team and he’s playing his role perfectly.”

Apart from Haaland's predatory instincts in front of goal, his mentality is something to behold. The 22-year-old is the utmost professional and has a great work ethic. Hence, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Haaland is taking European football by storm at this point.
