ERLING HAALAND has joined Manchester City team-mate Jack Grealish by starting his modelling career.
The 22-year-old striker was snapped flaunting a £4,700 Breitling watch as he was unveiled as the company’s newest face of the brand.
And Haaland, a self-confessed watch lover, is set to front a new campaign for the company later this month as his global superstardom continues to rise both on and off the pitch.
Speaking about his link-up with Breitling , Haaland said: “I’m a watch freak, so I was already a big fan of the brand.
“If you know my style, you know I always go for a clean look that can take me between my public and private life.
“The new Breitling I’m representing is exactly that: a watch that works for everything that I do. I can’t wait to introduce it next week and to finally wear it myself.”;
Haaland’s path to becoming a model comes just months after Grealish signed a £1million deal with Gucci .
The Norwegian forward joins NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo, snowboarder Chloe Kim, and American football player Trevor Lawrence in teaming up with Breitling.
Haaland bought every member of the Dortmund squad a watch before leaving at the end of last season.
And Breitling CEO Georges Kern added: “Erling Haaland is exactly what we look for in a squad member.

“He’s a powerful performer, he’s got tremendous character, he’s completely authentic and down to earth. Erling is the absolute embodiment of Breitling’s casual and inclusive luxury.”;
Haaland has already scored a breathtaking 22 goals in just 15 games for Man City .
And after 11 matches he is halfway to breaking the record for most goals in a single Premier League campaign - which is currently held by Alan Shearer and Andy Cole with a tally of 34.
Meanwhile, City closed the gap to Arsenal at the top of the table to two points at the weekend after beating Brighton 3-1 .
Mikel Arteta’s men dropped points for just the second time this season, drawing 1-1 with Southampton at St Mary’s.
