Haaland to become Clash of Clans character

He's already a legend in the eyes of Manchester City supporters, but now Erling Haaland is set to be immortalised in the Clash of Clans universe.

The striker is set to become a character in the popular mobile game, meaning fans can play as the Norwegian.

Haaland, a self-confessed fan of the game, will take the form of the 'Barbarian King'.

Fans will be able to play as Haaland from 1 May, or try to defeat the Norwegian and his in-game village.

Haaland, who said it was "tough to keep this one quiet", says it's "really cool" to become a character in the game.
