Red Bull Salzburg forward, Karim Adeyemi has come out to say that no one should compare him with Erling Haaland. He recently revealed that he is not focused on following the path of BvB, and he wants to be his own man.
According to him, even if Haaland is doing really well in Germany, he is more interested in finding his own way during his football career.
Karim added that he’ll keep learning from the deadly striker, but he is not his role model in the game.
His words, “Is Erling Haaland a role model? That is difficult to say. But of course, you as a player have in mind which ones are best at your position,”
“Haaland is doing a great job at Borussia Dortmund, he has developed very well and has grown in many areas. I can cut a slice of that for myself. But I can’t compare myself to Haaland and go my own way.
“But you can always learn something from such a good player.”
On his UCL debut, “I was able to play my first game in the Champions League against FC Bayern Munich. Munich is my city and then you will play against the best club in the world,”
“That was of course a great experience that a young player will never forget for a lifetime. Of course, it also helps me with my development. I would like to continue playing in the Champions League in the future.
“Even a few days later, I wasn’t able to score the goal against Moscow. It was a great feeling for me. Without wanting to exaggerate: I must have looked at the gate more than 100 times.
“Such duels in the Champions League are valuable for a young player. If I had nothing to improve, I would probably play somewhere else.
“There is always something to improve, whether you are an older or a younger player. But I can not only improve in the Champions League but also in the Austrian league.”
