Merson: What Is Haaland Missing to Win the Ballon d'Or

Paul Merson, former player of London-based club "Arsenal," shared his thoughts on Norwegian striker Erling Haaland's chances of winning the "Ballon d'Or" award next year. "Haaland continues scoring goals.

But is that enough for the 'Ballon d'Or'? I don’t think so.

It’s not just about how many goals you score, but your performance in the Champions League that matters most. If 'The Citizens' win the trophy, Erling's chances will be significantly higher," the expert said in an interview with Sportskeeda.

In the current English Premier League season, the 25-year-old Scandinavian striker has played in 11 matches for "Manchester City," scoring 14 goals.
