It turns out that the attacker owes his incredible speed to maternal genes. The player's grandmother, Inge Asse Braut, was one of the top athletes in the long jump and sprint, while Gri's mother, Marita Braut, competed in the same disciplines. In 1990, she won the Norwegian Junior Pentathlon Championship.
Recall that in one of the matches for Borussia, Haaland reached a speed of 36.3 km/h. The Norwegian has shown similar results since his move to Manchester City.
