Manchester City set to offer Haaland new £600,000-a-week contract

Manchester City are reportedly willing to offer star striker Erling Braut Haaland a massive new contract. 

The Norwegian is currently earning £ 375,000 per week, which is equivalent to Kevin De Bruyne’s salary. 

The Daily Star claim the Premier League giants are preparing to hand him a 60 percent pay rise to £600,000 a week. 

Haaland is already contracted to the English club until 2027, but they will offer him fresh terms to extend his stay beyond 2027. 

The supremely talented centre-forward took the Premier League by storm after joining the Cityzens last summer from Borussia Dortmund. 

He smashed an incredible 52 goals in 53 appearances last term, playing a key role in helping his side win the continental treble. 

The Norway international broke several records along the way, including the most goals scored in a season in the English top flight. 

Haaland has started the new campaign in a spectacular fashion, netting six goals in four appearances. 

The 23-year-old bagged his fifth Premier League hat-trick in Saturday’s 5-1 win over Fulham. 

By offering him a new lucrative contract, City want to ensure he is not tempted to join Real Madrid or head to Saudi Arabia. 

It looks very unlikely the striker will want to move anywhere as he is playing under the best coach in Pep Guardiola and enjoying tremendous success at the Etihad Stadium.
