The Norway international is among the deadliest forwards in world football at the moment, but even he finds some defenders difficult to go up against.
Asked in a recent interview who he believes are the best centre-backs in world football, Haaland named Real Madrid's captain, a currently injured Liverpool star and Napoli's Senegalese stalwart.
"I think the three best centre-backs in the world are Sergio Ramos, (Virgil) Van Dijk and (Kalidou) Koulibaly," he told Verdens Gang.
"All three are very physical, but also very intelligent on the field."
In terms of his personal goals for the coming year, Haaland also revealed that he wants to become an even more regular goalscorer.

"I have set a goal for 2021, I want to start scoring and not stop until the end of the season," he added.
