Fans can't believe how accurate Erling Haaland's British accent is after listening to the latest clip of the Norwegian.
Haaland, who was born in Leeds before moving to Norway as a child, has become notorious for his hilarious impression of the British accent.
The Manchester City striker went viral for his impersonation of John Stones' Yorkshire accent in April, with fans claiming he sounded more like Stones than Stones himself.
Haaland has now treated fans to another impression of the British accent during the Sky Blues' squad photo shoot, and it might just be his best yet.

Lining up for the photo, Haaland joked that the Champions League trophy was not for Bernardo Silva, who was striding over to take his place directly in front of the infamous silverware.
Speaking in a James Bond esc accent, Haaland said: "Bernardo can't have it. Bernardo, that's not for you."
Bernardo responded by pointing to the trophy and exclaiming: "this is mine", before letting out an evil laugh. "I'll keep the big one in front of me, don't worry," he joked.
City boss Pep Guardiola then went and set next to Silva, jokingly placing the trophy in front of him instead.
Fans rushed to social media to laugh at Haaland's accent, claiming that he has "never sounded so British".
"He is so British ahahah", wrote one fan.
"So accurate", another added.
"THE WAY HE SAYS BERNARDO OMDS, that's a British man right there" a third remarked.
"That guy ain’t Norwegian," a fourth joked.
Despite being kept quiet for most of the game, Haaland scored in the 86th minute of City's 3-1 win over West Ham last weekend, taking his tally to seven goals already in the Premier League.
Meanwhile, he will be hoping to get off the mark in Europe against Serbian side Crvena Zvezda in their Champions league opening group stage game this evening.
