- Erling Haaland left his apartment in central Manchester at the end of last year.

Erling Haaland has moved from the bustling streets of Manchester to the Cheshire countryside to live 10 minutes from his Manchester City team-mate Jack Grealish.
The 24-year-old previously rented a city center apartment where Grealish was his neighbour, before the England star bought a £5.6million mansion in 2023.
Haaland was reportedly seen visiting homes with his long-term partner Isabel Haugseng Johansen, 20, in October 2024.
Isabel, who is a footballer and also works part-time in a fashion store, is believed to have met Haaland at the Bryne youth academy, for which they both played.
She recently gave birth, making Haaland a first-time father, and the couple is apparently eager to settle down in light of this milestone.
His six-bedroom mansion near Alderley Edge is approximately 30 minutes from Manchester city center and has been a famous hangout for Manchester United and City players over the years.

Haaland, 26, recently became a first-time father after his girlfriend Isabel gave birth last month.
The couple met when they were playing together in the academy of Norwegian team Bryne FK.
Some notable names include: Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Rio Ferdinand, Eric Cantona and Dwight Yorke.
Alderly Edge is part of what is known as the 'Golden Triangle', also known as the 'Footballer's Belt'. an area of small towns and thriving villages in Cheshire.
The triangle, which extends around five miles at its furthest point, includes the area within Alderley Edge, Prestbury and Wilmslow.
Five of the ten most expensive roads in the North West of England are located in this area, which is also home to wealthy businessmen and entertainment industry figures.
Liverpool players Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are also believed to live in the triangle as it is a 50-minute drive from the Reds' training ground in Kirkby.
Haaland's decision to put down roots with his family in Manchester may be inspiring news for City fans, as there has been much speculation about his future in recent months.
In November it was reported that City wanted him to sign a new contract to keep him at the club for at least five more years.
The total package is believed to be worth £100m, without even taking bonuses into account.

Cristiano Ronaldo is believed to have lived in the Golden Triangle between 2006 and 2009.
David Beckham lived in Alderley Edge with his wife Victoria while he was at Man United.
Eric Cantona also lived in Alderley Edge during his time with the Red Devils in the 1990s.

The Norwegian has been linked with Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid, but City are keen to avoid interest in their star striker.
Haaland has thrived under Pep Guardiola since joining City in 2022, scoring 111 goals in 125 club appearances.
City won an unprecedented treble in Haaland's first season and retained the Premier League title last season.
Haaland has won the Golden Boot in each of his two Premier League seasons and is on course to win the award again after scoring 12 goals in his first 11 league games in 2024-25.
