Haaland praises Ramos and puts him among the world's top three centre-backs

Erling Haaland is one of European football's most fashionable forwards in 2020, and the Norwegian sensation has been linked with a move from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid among other clubs already.

The forward has already come up against a number of high level centre-backs since bursting onto the scene in Europe with RB Salzburg before clinching his move to Dortmund, and he has been taking the time to talk up some of the best in the game.

"The best [centre-backs] are Sergio Ramos, [Virgil] Van Dijk and [Kalidou] Koulibaly," Haaland told Norwegian outlet VG.

"All three are very physical, but also very intelligent on the pitch."

The exciting youngster also praised compatriot and Real Madrid midfielder Martin Odegaard during the same interview.

Haaland has recently suffered an injury setback, but he is expected to return for Dortmund against Wolfsburg this coming weekend.
