Erling Haaland’s future has small print

Erling Haaland's future has small print

Manchester City want to tie down the renewal of Erling Haaland, who is under contract until 2027. The Cityzens will allow the Norwegian striker to be the highest paid striker in the Premier League – around 24 million euros net per season – but the agreement will have small print. According to ‘Marca’, the player’s top condition is to keep a release clause to control his future.

Erling Haaland and Manchester City want to continue hand in hand. Although the Norwegian striker has a contract at the Etihad Stadium until 30th June 2027, the English club are hoping not to get caught out and guarantee the future of their No 9 at home. Both parties are already working on the renewal, which will have its small print.

All the scenarios point to the striker becoming the highest paid player in the Premier League. 24 million euros net per season seems to be the exorbitant figures reserved for the hero of 70 goals in 69 games. Of course, he wants to control his own future, that is his top priority.

‘Marca’ published that Erling Haaland’s camp will keep a release clause for what might happen in the long term. A condition that his father, Alf-Ingle, has always made clear: “Erling is 100% the master of his destiny. Now and forever.” This will open up a scenario of questions.

Although his present is at Manchester City, the Real Madrid rumours have always been there. The club have their attacking front covered and the Norwegian’s loyalty to the Sky Blues is unwavering, but the situation could turn around at any moment.

Another point to bear in mind is that Pep Guardiola has given the go-ahead. In England, they will be delighted with Erling Haaland’s renewal, which is looking increasingly likely. The door to the Etihad Stadium will not be locked. They want to leave it unlocked just in case.
