– Borrusia Dortmund star Erling Halaan is still hungry for goals despite his successes.
– He took his international tally to 12 goals in 15 caps during the September international break, but isn’t happy with himself.
– Yet Haaland feels that he should score more goals than he plays matches, after hitting double figures for Norway with a hat-trick against Gibraltar in Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifying.
– But speaking aftwards, the forward has admitted that he does not feel like he is living up to his personal standards in terms of a goals-per-game yield.
– “I do not score enough goals,” Haaland told TV2 following Stale Solbakken’s side’s win.
– “I’m close to one goal [per game] on average. I personally think that I should have had more goals than matches.”
– Asked if he feels he will be able to exceed Jorgen Juve’s record tally of 33 goals for Norway, he added: “You can probably imagine what I am working towards.”
– At domestic level, he currently sits second in the Bundesliga scoring charts, behind only Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski.
