Manchester City’s star player Erling Haaland was recently spotted enjoying his holiday in Ibiza. The player was, however, spotted hanging out with a surprising fan.
Haaland was seen hanging out with Croatian model Ivana Knoll, who recently went viral after sharing her pictures at different soccer matches. The model posted a picture of herself with Erling Haaland while they both were in Ibiza.
Sources claim, that the pair bumped into each other at Playa Soleil which is an exclusive beach club in Ibiza. Both the player and the model were seen beaming at the camera while they posed for the picture. The Manchester City could be seen enjoying his very well-deserved vacation in Ibiza.

This interaction, however, raised some eyebrows from the fans. One fan expressed her confusion seeing the picture. They wrote, “Doesn’t he have a girlfriend?” While another fan wrote, “Don’t lean in, Erling.” Another fan asked the player to take it easy with his vacation, “Take it easy lad.”
The player has spent more than half of his off-season vacationing in Spain. Manchester City‘s star player is expected to continue to live up to his nickname as ‘Goal Machine’ next season as well.
Erling Haaland’s girlfriend
The player has kept his personal life hidden from the public eye for a long time. Not much is known about the player’s private life and there is very little information as to who he is dating currently.
Although, in November 2022, Erling Haaland was spotted with soccer player Isabel Haugseng Johansen. Furthermore, the pair was later confirmed to be in a relationship. Along with being a soccer player herself, Isabel works at a fashion store.
Haaland and Isabel are said to have grown up together while sharing their passion for soccer. However, they did not get together while Haaland was still in Norway. According to some reports, they fell in love when the Norwegian player was in Germany.
Erling Haaland and his girlfriend Isabel Johansen share a great story:

A source revealed about the couple’s close relationship, “[Their relationship] seems to be pretty serious. Isabel has traveled to Germany and England to see Erling and now she’s been with him [on holiday]. Isabel is well known for her beauty in Bryne. They’ve always known each other.”
The source continued, “Erling has the world at his feet and women queuing up to be his partner. But he’s a very sensible lad and it makes perfect sense he’s with a girl from his hometown who he’s known for years. He needs to be able to trust the people in his life and just concentrate on football.”
The lovebirds prefer to keep their relationship low-key. Although, the couple has made several public appearances together. Furthermore, Isabel was recently spotted with the player, celebrating the player’s Premier League win.
