Welcome Erling Haaland | Signing confirmed on a 5 year deal

Ok, I've had a look but I can't seem to find confirmation of his wages on here and every source I've found elsewhere looks like a guess "believed to be around £375k". I don't dismiss the possibility of doublespeak, language like that is often very deliberate wherever it's used. There were some suggestions that he could earn up to 500k per week with bonuses which I don't believe.

Do we have any confirmation of his wages yet and any bonuses while we are at it?

The bitter trolls are also all over every Haaland topic, suggesting City actually paid anywhere from £120m to £200m with agent fees included.

That I can see is nonsense. It seems as though every credible source is in agreement that the fee was £51.1m and the total agent fees were £34m, which is to be split between Alf-Inge Haaland and Rafaela Pimenta. Although, I did see an exact amount of £85.6m total cited by one source, which seems quite specific. I've not seen any mentions of bonus clauses yet.

I don't recall seeing agent fees for players like Diaz, Lukaku and Sancho in recent times... and I very much doubt there weren't any to pay. Either way, £85.6m is still a lot less then anyone expected a club would have to pay to land him, after he became a target for every big club in Europe at Dortmund. They are desperately trying to convince themselves City haven't got a great deal, they must know they are lying to themselves in truth. They are hurting about this one.
