Shearer calls Holland the best striker in the world: «Completing attacks at the highest level»

Former England player Alan Shearer has described Manchester City forward Erling Holand as the best striker in the world at the moment.

«Howland is the best striker in the world at the moment. After all, he is scoring while playing in the most difficult league in the world.

I understand he has great partners but he still has to finish his chances and the way he does it, the ease with which he does it, although of course it's not easy at all, suggests that there's nobody better than him at putting the ball in the net at the moment», Betfair quoted Shearer as saying.

In the current season, the 24-year-old Norwegian spent four matches for the «citizens», noting seven goals. His market value is estimated at 180 million euros according to the portal Transfermarkt.
