EPL: Haaland to become first £500,000-a-week player

Manchester City is set to offer red-hot Erling Haaland a stunning new contract.

The 22-year-old has netted 42 goals already in his debut campaign for the Premier League champions.

His form has seen him linked with Real Madrid, who are believed to be keen on landing him in the summer of 2024.

But The UK Sun reports that City will sit down with the Norway striker at the end of this season to negotiate a new deal.

The new deal will see Haaland become the best-paid player in the Premier League, with an income of £500,000-a-week.

Haaland’s current deal lasts until 2027, but Man City will extend that by a year as part of the proposals to maintain Haaland’s services despite Real Madrid’s interest.

The player currently earns £375,000 each week, putting him equal at the top of the Premier League’s best-paid stars, along with teammate Kevin De Bruyne and Man United shotstopper David de Gea.
