He doesn’t care much.. Where was Haaland during the Ballon d’Or ceremony?

Despite the presence of many Manchester City players and officials at the Ballon d’Or ceremony, Erling Haaland was not in the French capital, Paris, and had other plans.

Haaland achieved fifth place in the final ranking of the Ballon d’Or, after being in second place last year behind Lionel Messi.

Haaland took advantage of the rest granted to City players by coach Pep Guardiola, and instead of going to the ceremony, he preferred to travel to Sweden.

Haaland was seen in a Swedish stadium attending a match between two obscure teams, and it seems that it is a clear message from him that he prefers to watch football than go to the Ballon d’Or ceremony while he is out of competition.

It is noteworthy that the Norwegian international expressed his great dissatisfaction last year with Messi winning the award, to the point that it was said that he started looking for a club that would provide him with a strong media backer to help him win the award one day.
