Steaks and unpasteurised milk - Haaland launches YouTube channel

Erling Haaland has been described as a "robot" on the pitch but he has shown his human side off it with the launch of his new YouTube, external channel.

The first episode offers behind-the-scenes access into a full day with the Norway striker, from his physiotherapy at home in the morning and visiting a local farm before training in the afternoon.

Stretches at 9am with Manchester City physio Mario Pafundi allows him loosen up for the day and the secrets to scoring all those goals? "Keeping his groins healthy," according to Haaland.

His house his equipped with a gym, sauna and ice bath, which is "good for the mind" as you are "achieving something you don't want to do".

The 25-year-old explains what he believes are the health benefits on having unpasteurised milk and maple syrup in his coffee, while also showcasing his skills on the barbecue.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA), however, strongly advises against consuming raw milk if you are in a vulnerable group, as it can cause serious food poisoning.

Haaland said living alone at the age of 16 in Norway meant he had to fend for himself and explains why cooking is a "big part of my life".

Tomahawk steaks and short ribs are his go to on an evening, with partner Isabel revealing he also enjoys "kebabs and slow cooked brisket tacos".

Haaland is clearly feeding well both on and off the pitch.
