Haaland confirmed as highest-paid player with £865,000-per-week Man City deal
Erling Haaland, a striker for Manchester City, makes close to £900,000 weekly at the Etihad.
This summer, Borussia Dortmund paid £51 million to bring the Norway international to their country.
But because of agency fees and additional signing-on agreements, the deal’s true cost was far greater.
Haaland reportedly earns significantly more in add-ons, making him the highest-paid gamer, according to the Daily Mail.
Haaland is projected to make £45 million in his first season at City, or an astounding £865,000 per week.
Following his return to Old Trafford, Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United rose to the position of highest-paid player in the Premier League.
However, the Portuguese superstar makes £25.5 million less than Haaland currently makes in a year.
