Erling Haaland's rarely seen older brother joins Man City title celebrations



Manchester City marvel Erling Haaland wasn't the only member of his family who caught the eye during Sunday's title celebrations.

That was after the Norwegian's rarely seen older brother, Astor, joined in the procession at the Etihad Stadium, where dad Alf-Inge also go involved in the festivities. The 50-year-old once dreamed of lifting a top-flight title as a Blue himself more than 20 years ago, but watching his progeny take Pep Guardiola's kingpins to the promised land is the next best thing.

And Erling wasn't the only son of the former City midfielder taking part in the afterparty following City's 1-0 win over Chelsea. That's after Astor - five years his brother's elder - was spotted revelling in the club's fifth league crown in only seasons.

Despite having a five-year headstart on his 'little' brother, Astor remarkably appears to hold the height advantage over the 6'4" Viking. The 27-year-old has studied finance at the BI Norwegian Business School in the past, though it's unclear as to whether he's still enrolled.

Little is known about the strapping sibling other than he was born of Alf-Inge's relationship with ex-wife Gry Marita Braut. The two brothers also share a sister, Gabrielle, who was born midway between the pair and was also present for the first of what could be numerous Premier League titles
