Erling Haaland admitted that he has been keeping up with Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe's exploits this season.
Manchester City forward Erling Haaland relishes the competition for the European Golden Shoe with Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane and Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe.
The 25-year-old continues to drag the Cityzens along the season, scoring the solitary goal in the victory against Brentford on Sunday afternoon, which helped them break into the top five.
The goal took his season tally to nine in only seven matches, three more than the next best in the Premier League, Antoine Semenyo.
What Haaland said
The Norwegian is a shoo-in to win the Premier League golden boot easily. His true competition is expected to come in the race for the European Golden Shoe, with Mbappé and Kane also in sensational form.
Asked if he has the competition with Kane for the award in mind, he said, "Don't forget Mbappe as well; he had a great start as well. They're doing amazing, so I need to keep up,” he admitted, per Goal.

“I have never felt better than I do now. It is about preparation, getting ready for the games. You can be physically ready but you need to be mentally ready. With a kid it makes me even better because I disconnect more than ever – I don't think about football at all.
“When you are young you think of this and that and maybe worry about things but when I get home I relax even more. I think I need to give a shout-out to my son. This for me, this goal is top. This was one of my better goals for me because of the whole thing."
Kane currently leads the way, with 11 goals in six matches. Mbappé has Haaland matched with nine goals in eight matches.
