Football Legends React to Haaland's Appearance in Clash of Clans

Supercell's Clash of Clans recently introduced Manchester City striker Erling Haaland as the first person to become an in-game character.

Now, the popular mobile game is showing us how other football stars are reacting to it. 

The company has enlisted football legends Ronaldinho, Sergio Agüero, and Ronaldo to take part in a series of hilarious ads where they air out their true thoughts on Haaland's feature. 

"So, Haaland is in Clash of Clans. But I'm the one who should be there," Ronaldinho shares in his spot. 

The Brazilian player goes on to play the game, but then touts his football skills, comparing himself to the Manchester City star.

"Does he know how to do this?" he says, as he performs several tricks with his football. 

The spot ends with a 3D character render of Ronaldinho, before revealing that he will, in fact, not be in-game.

Sergio Agüero's spot follows suit.

Except this time, he accuses Haaland of following his footsteps, including playing for the same team and breaking the records he had set.

"I get into a video game, he gets into a video game," the Argentinian footballer says. "Seriously, can you leave me alone?"

Like Ronaldinho, Agüero won't be in Clash of Clans, but only because he doesn't want Haaland's character to be more powerful than his.

In the last spot, Ronaldo says that while Haaland may be tall, powerful, and good at attacking villages, he is no "Ronaldo the First." 

"And nobody gets through walls like Ronaldo the First. Nobody breaks down defenses like Ronaldo the First," he says. 

After revealing a rough sketch of what he would look like as a Clash of Clans character, the "Real Valladolid" president hopes that maybe next time, Clash of Clans will get him. 

Erling Haaland's Clash of Clans Debut

In reaction to the three football stars and their spots, Haaland shares that "these guys are all legends and he’d have them in his clan any day."

The campaign follows after Clash of Clans officially introduced Erling Haaland as Clash of Clans' "Barbarian King" in a football-themed seasonal event earlier in May.

Fans can choose to play his character, or even defeat his village as he defends it from rival clans. 

"I've been a huge fan of the game for a long time and know everything about it, so to appear as an in-game character is cool," Haaland spoke of the partnership.
