Haaland offers glimpse into odd post-match meal as part of 6,000-calorie diet

The 24-year-old helped his side run out easy 4-0 winners at the Etihad on Saturday as the Citizens moved into fourth spot in the table.

Though there was some concern regarding Haaland after he went off in the closing stages with what appeared to be a knee knock ahead of Wednesday's crunch Champions League clash at Real Madrid.

However Haaland seemingly allayed any injury fears after taking to his Instagram story - while also giving fans a peek into his insane eating habits.

Holding what appeared to be a half-eaten lamb chop, the Norway international captioned his post by simply stating: "Small feast after game."

Haaland has become known for his insane diet, with it claimed he consumes 6,000 calories per day.

The ex-Borussia Dortmund marksman has been honest about his incredible diet, which was shown during his documentary 'Haaland: The Big Decision' that followed him during his first season at City after arriving in 2022.

In that, he revealed that cow hearts and liver were on the menu for him - something that would surely raise eyebrows amongst Brits.

He said: "You [other people] don't eat this, but I am concerned with taking care of my body.

"I think eating quality food that is as local as possible is the most important.

"People say meat is bad for you but which? The meat you get at McDonald's?

"Or the local cow eating grass right over there? I eat the heart and the liver."

And don't be surprised if you find Haaland in your local kebab shop - though the centre-forward has declared he has to stop himself from tucking into his favourite greasy cuisine.

He previously remarked: "My favourite meal is things we can never eat, things we only eat once in an occasion.

"I love kebab or kebab pizza, I absolutely love it, it's one of the best things I have to say, but I can never eat it.

"Sometimes I sit home like, 'It would be so good,' then I go to the fridge and make something else, that's my life."

His love of food also stretches to Indian and Chinese cuisine - and his dad's homemade lasagne - while also requesting City's chefs to knock him up ham and cheese omelettes.

Oh, and don't forget his love of milk, which he jokingly refers to as his 'magic potion'.

Though Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson seemingly has no interest in smelling what Haaland's cooking having been left stunned by the striker's diet.

He told talKSPORT: "I do love my food… and if that's working for him!

"He eats hearts and liver and a lasagne before every game, and he's in amazing shape?"
