Erling Haaland has proved he is a man of many talents after serving Manchester City fans from inside an ice cream van.
Letting his hair down during the club’s treble celebrations, the 22-year-old began serving scoops while wearing gold Dolce & Gabbana pyjamas.

It capped a mad few days for the cigar-puffing Norway international, who jetted out to Ibiza with a number of the City squad following their Champions League final triumph.
He then poured champagne over Jack Grealish’s head during their bus parade, before continuing the party at Depot Mayfield in Manchester city centre.
And it was there where the ex-Borussia Dortmund marksman asked to come inside the Mr Whippy Ice Cream van to make his own frozen treat, while also helping out stunned owner Ejaz Azam.
Speaking to the Oldham Times, the 36-year-old has spoken of his shock at Haaland coming onboard – after he initially stated he was closed after a gruelling 14-hour shift.
He said: “They booked me about a week ago for the celebration. I went there and gave them about 200 to 300 ice creams.
“Then Haaland came to me, and he goes ‘I want slush, but only the blue one’. Then he goes, ‘let me come in’ and I go ‘yeah, come in.’
“He came in and he served ice cream and slush to 10 to 15 people, and then he made his own ice cream with slush on top of it and he said my ice cream was ‘unbelievable.'”
Mr Azam continued: “I was not expecting him to come to me and have ice cream. From the City players I only knew him, only one person I knew.

“He’s a good, good player, and when he came to me I was closed. I was booked until 11pm, but there were loads of people, so I wasn’t able to get out, so they made me stop on the spot where I was.
“He came to me about 12.30, I didn’t see him at first so I said ‘no, no I’m closed, I’m not serving anymore.’
“There was somebody else with him and he went ‘Are you not serving Haaland, City player?’
“I go ‘oh no no, no, no, come on, it’s open for you 24/7, you can come any time.
“He went ‘no, it’s OK if you’re closed, don’t worry’, but I said ‘no I’m open for you, don’t worry man.’
“I opened the serving window for him, and he asked me for slush, and then he goes ‘you know what, let me come in.’
“I said ‘you’re most welcome, come in’ and he started serving customers, and then he made his own slush with ice cream on top.”
Haaland is no stranger to satisfying his cravings after a night out partying, as he cooked himself a steak in the kitchen at private club MNKY HSE after City won the Premier League.
