Erling Haaland

Erling Haaland makes his FIFA World Cup debut in 2026 — Norway’s first appearance at a World Cup since 1998 (France). The qualification campaign rewrote the script for Norwegian football, with Haaland and Martin Ødegaard combining for the headline goal-scoring numbers.

At club level Haaland has rewritten the Premier League goal-scoring record book at Manchester City under Pep Guardiola, with 90+ goals in his first three seasons. Norway’s tactical setup with Ståle Solbakken (or his successor by 2026) is built around feeding Haaland in the box from wide overlaps and direct play.

Norway’s 2026 group will dictate how deep they realistically go. Even without a deep run, every Haaland match draws huge neutral interest; resale prices for Norway fixtures are elevated relative to other lower-seeded sides.
