Man City striker Erling Haaland stunned many people when he wore eye-catching blue pajamas when attending an EA Sports event. The reason Haaland dresses so differently comes from a million-dollar contract.
Erling Haaland attracted all attention when attending the launch event of the new game FC24 of famous video game maker EA Sports in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Along with Jude Bellingham, Enzo Fernandez, Vincius Jr., and Marcus Rashford, the Norwegian striker is one of the stars appearing on the cover of this game.
Compared to his colleagues, Haaland is more favored when placed in the center of the cover. A series of former famous players, such as Didier Drogba, Luis Figo, and Ronaldinho, along with many famous figures in the world of music and entertainment, such as British rap singer Stormzy, also participated.
However, Haaland is the most prominent figure among the guests attending EA Sports’ event. The reason is because Haaland dressed like no one else when appearing at this event. While the rest of the guests wore elegant suits, the Norwegian striker wore an all-blue outfit that was “eye-sore”. It is not difficult to recognize that the Man City striker’s shiny blue pajamas have the letters “EH” (Erling Haaland’s abbreviation) embroidered on the chest pocket.

Appearing in such “eye-sore” pajamas, Haaland truly made many people gasp because they couldn’t understand what message he wanted to convey through the outfit that was meant to be worn only at home. No wonder the 22-year-old striker was ridiculed by fans on social networks because of his odd choice of outfit. Some fans have asserted that with this sloppy style of dressing, Haaland will inevitably become a symbol of fashion disasters among football stars. At the same time, the more urgent task right now for Man City’s “big guns” is to find a fashion consultant immediately. Meanwhile, another fan commented humorously, asking Haaland to return the pajamas to his grandmother.
However, there were also people who seemed understanding when commenting that with a star of Haaland’s caliber, this striker was not so confused that he grabbed his pajamas and quickly wore them to attend an event in front of a large number of fans. It is not redundant to recall that at Manchester City’s Premier League championship celebration party, Haaland appeared in light blue pajamas with his girlfriend Isabel Johansen. It’s the same pajamas as seen at the EA Sports event, just a different color. Haaland even previously showed off on his Instagram account to millions of followers the image of him wearing bright orange pajamas.
The reason why Haaland constantly wears pajamas with eye-catching colors comes from the fact that Haaland signed an advertising contract worth millions of dollars with the famous brand Dolce & Gabbana. According to the Daily Mail, the tall Norwegian striker will earn a salary of about 2.3 million euros. That’s why the Manchester City striker appears time and again in Dolce & Gabbana pajamas.
