Alf Ingve Berntsen, a former coach for Red Bull Salzburg starlet Erling Haaland, has called for patience when assessing the player, saying he is "far from the level" of stars like Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski.
Haaland has taken European football by storm this season, excelling in Austrian football and also shining in the UEFA Champions League. Given he's just 19 years old, it's no surprise the Norwegian has already been subject to transfer speculation, with Bayern, Manchester United and Liverpool mentioned.
However, Bernsten, who worked with Haaland during their time together at Bryne FK, has said the forward still has a long way to go, per Maximilian Schmeckel of Goal:
"The tactical requirements at Bayern and Liverpool would be a bit too high for now—after all, he has only played in Norway and Austria so far.
