The 20-year-old shared his excitement at attending the Grand Prix with a post on Instagram.

He shared a photo of him on the plane to France with the caption: ‘Verified On the way to Monaco! #MonacoGP’.

The Norwegian has earned a break after another outstanding season in Germany.

The forward managed 41 goals in 41 games across all competitions and also contributed 12 assists. 

Dortmund had already secured a place in the Champions League in the penultimate weekend of the season but Saturday’s victory ensured a third-place finish.

Norway’s failure to qualify for the Euros means Haaland will have a longer break than most but he could still be in for a busy summer off the pitch.   

His goalscoring form having attracted interest from the likes of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool.
