Erling Haaland sheds his ponytail as the long-haired Manchester City star picks up a pack of bulbs at a garage with girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen

On Wednesday, Erling Haaland was photographed at a Cheshire petrol station with his blonde hair loose rather than his distinctive ponytail.

The Manchester City striker, 23, was accompanied by his girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen as they refueled their car and picked up some necessities.

The Norwegian looked handsome with his shoulder-length mop as he popped into the garage to get a pack of batteries, while Isabel grabbed a can of soda.

Haaland smiled as he wore a cream zip-up, £3000 Brunelli Cucinelli tracksuit and white trainers, with one hand in his pocket.

He was joined by Isabel, 19, who did the honors of filling up his £300,000 Rolls Royce.

Erling Haaland, 23, looked unrecognizable when he chose to leave his blonde tresses loose for a trip to a Cheshire fuel station with his girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen, 19, on Wednesday.

The Norwegian Manchester City striker, 23, looked dashing with his shoulder-length mop which he brushed out of her face

She also dressed casually in blue trousers, a thin black V-neck long-sleeved jumper, and white trainers.

Isabel, a football player, and Haaland joked as she filled the Premier League top scorer’s 90-litre tank.

The couple has been dating since at least 2022, when they were seen on vacation in Marbella, but they keep their relationship quiet.

The average cost of petrol in Cheshire is £1.34 a litre, so the couple would have paid close to £120 for a full tank of fuel.

It comes just two days after Haaland made his first start for Brentford since his lengthy injury absence in a home game.

Haaland missed ten matches between mid-December and the end of January owing to a stress response in one of his footbones.

He appeared for 19 minutes in the win over Burnley at the end of January, some three weeks later than he had expected to return.

Manchester City won 3-1 with Phil Foden scoring a hat trick, despite Brentford netting the first goal of the game.
