ERLING HAALAND has finally revealed what the “embarrassing” video game is that he loves playing.
The Manchester City striker, 22, recently broke the record for most Premier League goals in one season.
That was after he scored in City’s 3-0 victory over West Ham earlier this month, meaning Haaland has now beaten Andy Cole and Alan Shearer’s previous long-standing record.
In a post-match interview with Sky Sports, he admitted what he would do to celebrate that feat, saying: “I will go home now and play some video games, eat something, and then sleep.”
That left supporters speculating as to what it was – but Haaland refused to spill the beans over his favourite game.
When pushed by interviewer David Jones on what games he enjoys, Haaland refused to answer.

He said: “I cannot say it’s too embarrassing.”
Now Haaland has finally revealed that he is an avid Minecraft player.
The Norwegian made the revelation by sharing an image on his Instagram Story that featured a shot of the popular video game with “#Squad” written over it.
Now he will be hoping to continue shooting down all before him and City as they look to seal a historic treble.
