Alf-Inge Haaland features at number 64 in our 100 Greatest Leeds players ever.
Born in Stavanger, Norway in 1972, he was signed from Nottingham Forrest for ????1.6 Million. Alfie was a regular between 1997 and 1999. He was a very solid, if not the most creative player in the side. In 1999-2000 he found himself watching from the dug out as Eirik Bakke replaced him in the centre of midfield. In 2000 Man City snapped up the versatile player for ????2.8 Million. Unfortunately his season was ruined after a vicious tackle from Roy Keane led to ligament damage. The tackle was said to be revenge for an incident involving the two players when Alfie was a Leeds player.
