9 | Erling Haaland - 2024/25

[Colin Bells Boots]

Would think any top player signing a new contract would have a release clause in it……..makes sense

It does if pitched commensurately to their worth to the club in possession

The cynic in me prays we don’t have a low(er) release clause in there.

£100m is a huge figure but nowhere near enough for this freak of goal scoring nature.

Would also mean - not like it was in doubt - that his little one will be a Manc too. Another one!

Long term planning...

If having a release clause somewhere between £100m and £150m is the only way to prevent Haaland doing an Mbappe and leaving on a free in 2027, then so be it. Furthermore, the release clause is only relevant if he ever actually wants to leave. He’s not forced to go if someone matches it. Once his kid enters the world, maybe he’ll find the roots he’s put down in England are actually very strong.

150, get 4-5 years out of him (as it stands) and guaranteed triple your transfer fee back. no bad tbf.
