Erling Haaland Looks Ultra Relaxed As He And Girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen Arrive At Ballon d'Or Awards Ceremony

Erling Haaland looked remarkably relaxed as he strolled across the red carpet ahead of Monday's Ballon d'Or awards ceremony in Paris.

Haaland was accompanied by his girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen.

She was wearing a sparkly pink dress, while Haaland rocked a navy blue suit with a bow tie.

Haaland's attire may have been formal but the Manchester City striker was otherwise very casual as he made his way into the venue.

The 23-year-old was briefly stopped by a reporter, who asked him for his thoughts on the Ballon d'Or and what the award meant to him "symbolically".

Haaland's response was in keeping with his chilled-out aura.

He said: "I think it's a great night. I'm looking forward to meeting a couple of my mates and everything.

"So it's going to be a great night with a lot of nice footballers in the same room."

Haaland was one of seven current Man City players among the 30 nominees for the 2023 men's Ballon d'Or award.

Former City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan, who left the Etihad Stadium to join Barcelona in June, was also on the shortlist.

Haaland would later discover that he had finished second in the vote, behind Lionel Messi.
