Speaking on the ESPN FC Podcast, Erling Haaland has been speaking about reported Liverpool target Jude Bellingham.
The midfielder is Haaland’s teammate at Borussia Dortmund, but if reports are to be believed these two may not be staying in Germany for long.
Indeed, Bellingham has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool, who are reportedly making plans to sign him this summer, while Haaland has been linked to pretty much every single elite European club.
Haaland is clearly a fan of Bellingham, labelling him a ‘phenomenal talent’.
What’s Haaland said about Bellingham?
The striker was full of praise for the midfielder.
“He’s a really good person Jude. He’s a phenomenal talent. Yeah, I play good with him as I did with Jadon last year. I think we have the same banter together and we get along really well together. Jude and me have a really good connection on the pitch and I think that’s really important,” Haaland said.
Glowing reference
If Erling Haaland is calling you a phenomenal talent then you must have something special about you.
Haaland is undoubtedly one of the best strikers in the world right now, and the fact that he’s speaking about Bellingham in such esteem just goes to show how brilliant the Englishman is.
There’s a reason that Liverpool are making plans to sign him, and if they manage to bring him in, their midfield could be sorted for the next decade and a half.
