Manchester City striker Erling Haaland’s buyout clause will become active next year, but negotiations for a contract extension at the Etihad are ongoing. Reports indicate that the existing clauses in Haaland’s contract are likely to remain unchanged as he seeks to retain control over his future decisions.
Despite discussions for a new deal with Manchester City, Haaland’s release clause, reportedly around £150m, is expected to stay the same.
