Erling Haaland will wear a different kit when Norway play Iraq in a World Cup 2026 match, according to reporting from multiple UK outlets. Both articles say Haaland’s shirt will not match the standard Norway strip for the game, and that the situation applies to him as part of a wider team arrangement rather than being unique to him alone. The reports describe a change to the Norway kit for the match and indicate that Haaland and his Norway team-mates will be affected by the requirement. Manchester City’s striker is therefore expected to feature in an alternate uniform as Norway begin their World Cup campaign. The coverage does not provide further details on the reason for the kit difference or whether it reflects a clash of colours or another tournament directive. Overall, the outlets agree that Norway’s opening World Cup meeting with Iraq includes an adjustment to the kit, with Haaland specifically set to wear a distinctive addition compared with the usual design.
