Erling Haaland, a striker for Manchester City, makes close to £900,000 weekly at the Etihad.
This summer, Borussia Dortmund paid £51 million to bring the Norway international to their country.
But because of agency fees and additional signing-on agreements, the deal’s true cost was far greater.
Haaland reportedly earns significantly more in add-ons, making him the highest-paid gamer, according to the Daily Mail.
Haaland is projected to make £45 million in his first season at City, or an astounding £865,000 per week.
Following his return to Old Trafford, Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United rose to the position of the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
However, the Portuguese superstar makes £25.5 million a year, which is significantly less than Haaland makes now.
