ERLING HAALAND is using his summer holidays to brush up on his farming skills while working alongside dad Alf-Inge in Norway.
When he’s not scoring goals for Borussia Dortmund, the 19-year-old can be found farming potatoes and chopping down trees.
Erling Haaland has proved he is a man of many talents
Team-mate Jadon Sancho could not control his laughter after Erling Haaland posted this snap
Haaland has been getting down and dirty in his homeland after returning for a well-deserved break.
The former Red Bull Salzburg star posted a picture of himself holding a chainsaw.
Haaland, who was wearing safety glasses, captioned the snap: “The winter is coming. Let’s chop some wood.”
Team-mate Jadon Sancho could not control his hysterics as he commented 11 laughing emojis.
In response to Sancho, Haaland said: “One day you will join.”
And fellow Dortmund star Gio Reyna commented: “Winter is in 5 months.”
But the 19-year-old was quick to explain why he was already preparing for colder conditions.
He said: “The wood has to dry out before you use it!!!!”
Haaland then followed up that photograph with a snap of himself potato farming.
The former Manchester United target has temporarily swapped his Mercedes CLA for a tractor.
He soaked up the sunshine as he farmed the fields without his shirt on.
Alongside an emoji of a potato, he wrote: “Working.”
Haaland has been keeping himself busy working with his father Alf-Inge – who played for the likes of Leeds United and Manchester City.
But the youngster hit the headlines for all of the wrong reasons this week in Norway.
Video footage appeared to show him being thrown out of a nightclub after arguing with bouncers.
He has been on holiday since Bundesliga runners-up Dortmund ended their season last month with a 4-0 defeat to Hoffenheim.
He racked up 44 goals in all competitions during the 2019/20 season.
Sixteen of those came for Dortmund after he snubbed Manchester United to join them from RB Leipzig in January.
