Erling Haaland has given fans a glimpse inside his Cheshire mansion—a style that may hold the key to his unstoppable form. The Manchester City star is obsessed with cooking and optimizing his body, and his luxurious home is specifically built to enhance those pursuits.
He shares the sprawling paradise with his girlfriend, Isabel Haugseng Johansen, and their baby boy, who was born in December. From dawn until dusk, their home is a hive of activity, particularly outdoors, where the star prepares his culinary masterpieces. It’s a significant upgrade from the rented city-center apartment they previously occupied.
“I love food. I live to eat food. No matter what happens in the day, this is the best moment,” Haaland stated, underscoring the importance of nutrition in his life. His kitchen reflects this passion, appearing as a professional-grade space with extensive white-panelled food storage, strategically placed house plants, and a selection of high-end wooden chopping boards. The design suggests a blend of minimalist luxury and practical functionality for preparing his specialized diet.
Haaland’s commitment to peak performance extends to his on-site training facilities. His home is decked out with a spacious, high-end gym, where he installs and uses equipment from luxury fitness brands such as PENT, known for its focus on quality materials like solid wood and leather.
This private facility is where he regularly welcomes Manchester City’s first-team sports therapist, Mario Pafundi, for dedicated massage and soft tissue work. The sessions with Pafundi are highly focused on maintaining the extraordinary flexibility in his groin and hips, a factor Haaland credits as essential for scoring his most acrobatic and “crazy goals.” This daily, detailed preparation with the City physio highlights the integrated, 24/7 approach he takes to maintaining his physique.
The final element of Haaland’s personalized environment is its exclusive location. His mansion is situated near Alderley Edge, a village roughly 30 minutes from Manchester city center. This area forms a key part of the ‘Golden Triangle’, also known colloquially as the Footballer Belt, an esteemed and highly affluent cluster of small towns and villages in Cheshire.
The area’s prestige is confirmed by the fact that it is home to some of the North West of England’s most expensive residential roads. Its reputation as a highly sought-after location for high-profile residents is well-established, having long attracted top players from both Manchester United and Manchester City, alongside wealthy businesspeople and figures from the entertainment industry.
The choice of this exclusive, tranquil setting reinforces Haaland’s focus on privacy and a stable environment away from the city spotlight.
