Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims the club is ready to make Erling Haaland the highest paid Premier League player, should he join from Borussia Dortmund.
The 21-year-old has been at the centre of a chaotic transfer saga which has seen him linked with a number of European giants ahead of a proposed summer move.
Competition is fierce for Haaland’s signature, as the prolific Norwegian will be available for around £63 million when his release clause becomes active at the end of the season.
Only a few days ago, it had been claimed that Manchester City already have a deal in place to sign the Norwegian international. And, while talks may not be that further along, it does seem like they are currently the best-placed team to sign him up.
Most reports concerning Haaland’s future at the moment appear to place City and Real Madrid at the front of the queue for his signature while stressing that a final decision is expected in the coming weeks.
According to Mike Keegan at the Mail, Manchester City are ready to make Erling Haaland the highest-paid player in England, should he join from Borussia Dortmund.
Personal terms have been discussed and Haaland would become the Premier League’s top earner, with a salary in excess of £500,000 a week – taking him above the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, who is rumoured to earn about £385,000 weekly.
City are said to believe there could be a final decision made in a month, which tallies up with reports from across the continent suggesting we are now only a few weeks away from knowing where the prodigious forward will be playing his football next season.
In light to the update, many Man City fans have reacted – here are some of the best responses.
