Erling Haaland, a striker for Manchester City, reportedly makes close to £900,000 weekly at the Etihad.
This summer, Borussia Dortmund was paid £51 million to bring the Norway international to the Premier League.
However, agent fees and signing on agreements drove up the deal’s actual cost, which was significantly higher.
According to the Daily Mail, Haaland makes much more in add-ons which makes him the highest-paid player.
Haaland is estimated to make £45 million in his first season at City, an astounding £865,000 per week.
Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United striker, rose to the position of the highest-paid player in the Premier League after his move back to Old Trafford.
However, the Portuguese superstar makes £25.5 million annually, less than Haaland currently makes in a year.
