Erling Haaland represents Norway despite being born in Leeds, England, because both of his parents are Norwegian and he grew up in Norway after his family moved back when he was young. Eligible for both nations, Haaland chose Norway from the start, progressing through its youth teams before making his senior debut in 2019. Now Norway’s all-time leading scorer, he has played a key role in the country’s impressive 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign.
