Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is now being
investigated by the police after appearing to use his mobile phone while
driving.
The 22-year-old Norwegian striker
appeared to be using the device while driving a £300,000 Rolls Royce.
The incident happened in New Islington, an area of Manchester which is
close to the Etihad. He was pictured driving the same car later that
day.
He was reportedly pictured using his phone
while driving on Wednesday, March 15, the day after he scored five goals
in City's 7-0 victory against Champions League rivals RB Leipzig.
Footage of the incident only emerged on Monday night.
The
Greater Manchester Police has now confirmed he's being investigated. A
spokesperson said, "I can confirm that GMP is aware of the image and is
investigating."
