He exploits Haaland’s statistics to demand one million a week
Borlingia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland is thought to be the highest paid player in the world once he has a new team and his salary is expected to be £ 1 million a week, according to the new contract his agent is looking for, Mino Raiola.
According to the British newspaper The mirror, Raiola’s plan is for the Norwegian striker to earn this figure per week, as well as only a few few teams can pay, such as Manchester City, Real Madrid or PSG.
The English newspaper assured that the agent’s plan is to exalt the statistics of the young Nordics who scored 39 goals in 41 games this season between matches with his national team and Dortmund.
For now, According to the newspaper, Lionel Messi is the best paid player in the world, because the Argentine earns around 500 thousand pounds a week after taxes.
While Raiola’s plan seems complicated, the footballers’ agent believes that some clubs will take this point into account and pay what they ask for their goods. However, after the meeting he had with Barcelona a few weeks ago, the transfer price for Haaland is estimated at 154 million pounds (211 million dollars).
Under this tenor, teams like Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United are already aware of the Norwegian’s price. Even Pep Guardiola, Manchester City’s technical director, said that “I don’t know what’s going on, but with these prices we won’t pay for a striker”.
According to experts quoted by The mirror, Haaland’s contract would be one of the most complex in the world due to image rights and commercial transactions. Moreover, if Raiola’s requirements and price were met, both he and his father, Alf-Inge Haaland, would provide about £ 20 million each.
