Erling Haaland signs huge new Man City deal until 2034 worth staggering salary

Erling Haaland penned a new deal with Manchester City on Friday morning, committing his future to the club until the summer of 2034.

It means the Norway international will remain at the Etihad Stadium for the next nine-and-a-half years if he sees out the length of his contract at Eastlands. The lucrative deal will make him one of the most highly paid players in world football and should shut down any immediate rumours linking him with a move to Real Madrid.

It has been suggested the 24-year-old has seen his previous wage of £375,000 per week upped to £500,000 per week, meaning his deal would be worth a whopping £26million per year.

“I am really happy to have signed my new contract and to be able to look forward to spending even more time at this great club," Haaland said after penning his new deal. “Manchester City is a special club, full of fantastic people with amazing supporters and it’s the type of environment that helps bring the best out of everybody.

“I also want to thank Pep, his coaching staff, my teammates and everyone at the club as they have all helped me so much in the past couple of years. They have made this such a special place to be and now I am City no matter what. I want to keep developing, keep working to get better and look to do my best to try and help us achieve more success going forward.”

City’s Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: “Everyone at the club is absolutely delighted that Erling has signed his new contract. The fact he is signed for so long demonstrates our commitment to him as a player, and his love of this club.

“He has made an incredible impact already in his time here and his amazing numbers and records speak for themselves. But in addition to his outstanding natural talent and ability, Erling’s dedication, professionalism, humility and desire to keep getting better sum up what we all strive to achieve at Manchester City.

“He is one of the finest strikers in world football, but Erling is still very young and will only continue to improve working under Pep and his coaching team. If he works hard, which I know he will, he will create an incredible legacy at this football club. Now he can focus on his game and continuing to play a huge part in helping us try to achieve even more success.”
