Erling Haaland

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Even if Bayern had the cash, I don’t get the vibes that Erling wants another 4/5 years in Germany.

£65m release clause
£50m agent/Alfie fees
£350k p/w
£25m signing on fee to Erling

£231m (without bonuses). Sounds about right. The signing on fee itself would work his weekly to around £450k p/w.

We will give Rioala's fee to your dad if you fire your agent while you are at MCFC. :)

Neither of those are real issues though, are they?
ANY agent will be looking for a new improved contract for their client by that point in the contract.
There's nothing to suggest Pep doesn't want him, but even if he doesn't, the club will do what's best going forward irrespective of his wishes

It’s more that Raiola will deliberately run down the contract to put the club in a desperate situation.

Players like Dias and Ederson have extended within 18 months of their arrival. Doesn’t tend to happen with Raiola clients.

Even if that were the case, three or four seasons of us having Haaland is better than three or four seasons of Chelsea or rag shits having him.

It’s not ideal to lose a circa £250m investment on a free transfer.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

The problem with him is you don’t know which version of him is coming out of the tunnel from one match to another

I think the main consideration for City at present is his age (31 in Feb) aligned to his current wages, which are high to say the least.

He has 19 months left on his contract and are debating the costs and what he might be worth next summer.

 

[Keeper!]

I don’t think the “City and nobody else” scenario is outside the realms of possibility. In fact I don’t think it’s unlikely at all.

For me, the more likely stumbling blocks will be:
A. Fear of Raiola’s contract fuckery in 4 years’ time, holding us to ransom for either a huge wage increase or a free transfer.

B. Does Pep actually want him? If Tolmie’s right and the club is planning for Pep’s departure in Summer ‘23, the board should be inclined to veto his protests and look to secure the squad beyond his reign.

Very true with your point B.

If Pep is off in 2023 then the club has to be thinking of the future and maybe just maybe that's why we would not sign Kane, a player the manager very much wanted.

Make the offer a 6 year contract. £300m buy out clause.

if he goes for free in 6 years at the age of 28, have we really lost out?

Why would we let him leave for free (assuming he'd want to leave)? Madrid bidding 170m for Mbappe who had a year says everything.

Pep loves Haaland fwiw.

Volker Struth [Kroos & Werner's Agent]: "Haaland has a release clause, Full package with salary for 5 years and agent fee will probably be in the region of 250M to 300M euros, Even if Bayern Munich had the money they wouldn't do it, All hell would break loose if a player in Germany earned 50M year.

Bargain.
