Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher believes Manchester City talisman Erling Haaland will struggle to win the next Ballon d'Or because he represents Norway internationally.

Haaland seemed a shoo-in to win the Ballon d'Or this year after scoring a whopping 52 goals in all competitions for the Blues.

He ended the campaign not only top goalscorer in the Premier League but also the Champions League as City went on to complete the Treble.

However, he somehow missed out on the Ballon d'Or this year after the jury decided to award Lionel Messi with his eighth after he captained Argentina to World Cup success in Qatar.
