Haaland, 23, also gave a hint at what might be helping him be such a devastating striker in the Premier League.

The former Borussia Dortmund man was carrying a bottle of raw milk with him as he was pictured by the Man City media team.

And fans were mixed in the comment section with many discussing his look, while others could not help but notice the raw milk.

One commented: “The only Barbie I’ll watch.”

A second wrote: “I think his girlfriend really makes him do all hairstyles.”

A third said: “Barbie .”

While a fourth joked: “Raw Milk gives Him the raw POWER that he has.”

And another added: “Raw Milk.”

Last season, Haaland created Premier League history with a free-scoring first campaign.

He scored an incredible 36 goals in 35 appearances, shattering the Premier League goal-scoring record for a 38-game season as well as the record for the most goals in 42 games.

The previous record was shared by Andy Cole (1993/94) and Alan Shearer (1994/95), who each scored 34 goals in the extended season.

Haaland also succeeded in Europe, scoring 12 goals in the Champions League to help Manchester City clinch a historic treble.
