Borussia Dortmund starlet Erling Haaland has previously admitted that he considers Zlatan Ibrahimovic a role model.

In an interview with FourFourTwo, the 19-year-old explains what he admires about the Swedish star striker.

"I like his mentality and how he sees different things," Haaland said and added:

"I think I've always had that confidence, too – that's just me. I also like how he moves from one club to another, in another country – which isn't easy – but he always comes in and just bangs in goals, from the first second. I liked seeing that."

Throughout his illustrious career, the 38-year-old has played in Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, France, England and the United States.
