The Statue of Man City star Haaland has been ‘stolen’! Why?

British media revealed that a statue of Manchester City star striker Erling Haaland has been stolen after it received complaints of being ‘too ugly’ in the Norwegian city of Bergen. The 10ft tall effigy was placed 50ft above a store in Bergen, Norway, which is Haaland’s hometown. However, it has now been removed from its place after fans complained that it looked absolutely nothing like the 22-year-old forward. According to The Sun, the thief, thought to be a disgruntled fan used a crane to take the statue away overnight. 
The newspaper pointed out that the statue, which was erected in the hometown of Erling Halland in Bryne, Norway, from a tree trunk 3 meters long and weighing a ton, was stolen from a thief who did not like the statue and decided to get rid of it, after the recent period witnessed great criticism due to the lack of similarity between him and the Manchester City player.
The sculpture was commissioned by businessman Tore Sivertsen for £10,000. However, even Sivertsen himself admitted that the statue was ugly. It was put into place two weeks ago and the plan was to auction it in order to raise money to fund a hospital in Tanzania. However, that plan is now at risk after the statue disappeared. 
Sivertsen told The Sun: “We are all enormously proud of Erling. “I thought it would be good to commission a statue to pay tribute. “Some have complained it’s too ugly though, let’s face it, Erling is not a pretty guy. But I was still shocked that someone decided to steal it.”
