Erling Haaland gives 175 cartons of football equipment to children in his  home town in Norway

Erling Haaland gave each of 1000 young footballers in Norway under the age of 12 a present bundle.

The Manchester City player was unable to attend in person, but his gift packages were delivered to every football team in Norway's Time municipality.

Haaland has a special affection for this region because it was where he was born, raised, and started playing football.

A football, T-shirt, shorts, football bag, and an Aquafigure water bottle were given to each child.

The cost of each bundle is 1500 NOK (£111).

After his impressive scoring heroics last season, Haaland has picked up where he left off and already has six goals to his name after four Premier League games.
