The Manchester City striker wanted to trademark his initials six months back. However, he was denied that move, as someone else had already trademarked Erling Haaland. Hence, the forward has decided to trademark his initials EBH. It is because he has a major plan ahead of his sleeve behind the trademarking. It is because reports indicate that the 23-year-old star forward wants to launch his clothing line. The clothing line could include pajamas. Significantly, it is the place where his initials have the potential to captivate consumers.
It is not the only thing he is trying to safeguard. He plans to patent distinct products like personalized soap, deodorant, perfume, computer games, mobile phones, smart watches, jewelry, umbrellas, drink bottles, sunglasses, yoga balls, and sweatpants. The striker has already patented his signature and the lotus goal celebration, joining players like Gareth Bale.

The FIFA Club World Cup has given an extra amount of time to the striker to recover from his injury. He did not play for a single minute in the semi-final and final of the tournament. Pep Guardiola did not want to take the risk of yet another injury. The club has only managed one win in the last four games. To sum up, it has led to the club falling into 5th position in the Premier League.
The team cannot risk avoiding dropping points should they want to remain in the title race. It means they will need the goal-scoring form Erling Haaland had last season, which helped them win the title race against Arsenal.
