Erling Haaland is currently one of the best football players in the world and his talent for scoring goals for Manchester City is remarkable to see. But beyond the football pitch, the Norwegian striker has also sought other challenges.

That is why he has been asked if he wants to compete with one of the world’s top athletes. The 24-year-old Alica Schmidt, who has stood out as a great exponent of athletics, both in her country, Germany, and around the world when she competes internationally, has ben in touch.

Alica, who is also one of the most beautiful and famous personalities on social networks, with millions of followers, has tried to reach Haaland so that they can compete in a 400m race.

This comes after Schmidt herself did the same thing with another football player. It was Mats Hummels, the renowned central defender who has had great moments with Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, as well as the German national team.

Alica Schmidt challenges Erling Haaland

It should be noted that the beautiful German sprinter not only triumphs because of her physique, but also because of all the talent and quality she has. She has already won several international medals; she boasts outstanding times of 52.18 in the 400 metres.

She used her official social media account to challenge Haaland to run together on an athletics track.

“I think that in 400 metres I could compete against Erling Haaland. In 200m it might be more difficult. But I’d still be happy if the race would take place…. We have to ask him, but I’m always ready. So, Haaland, if you’re ready to run, I’d be happy. Let’s see who’s faster!”

revealed Alica, who was questioned about the possibility in a video that has met with the approval of her fans, who are already looking forward to the two going head to head.

Haaland is expected to respond

After Alica Schmidt‘s video went viral, followers of both athletes are just waiting for them to agree on an official date.

The challenge would be one more for Alica, who easily beat Hummels a short time ago and hopes to continue her great run in friendly races.

While awaiting Haaland‘s response, he will continue to lead Pep Guardiola‘s Manchester City in the quest for more silverware to cement himself as the best player in the world.
