FC Barcelona legend Gerard Pique has told Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland what he must do to match Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
has emerged as one of the best strikers in the world and has arguably taken Man City to a whole new level since his £51m move to the Etihad from Borussia Dortmund in 2022.The 23-year-old has 81 goals in his 87 appearances for the Premier League title holders across all competitions and he’s on track to win a couple more trophies this season.
“I think he has a lot of potential but to arrive at the level of Messi and Cristiano, it’s a long way to go,” Pique said on talkSPORT.“He’s very young, very promising and he has a lot of potential but still I think he’s far away from those two.”“He’s the greatest player in the history of the game for sure,” Pique added.
“When he arrived he was very small, very thin, crazy small. When we saw him first we thought if we touched him we’d destroy him so be careful. City boss Pep Guardiola admitted over the weekend that he has no control over Haaland’s playing time for Norway. He said: “He is not my player anymore from now on, what they will decide will be fine.
