  • City will offer big money to keep Norwegian

WHAT HAPPENED? Fresh off a hat-trick in Saturday's win over Fulham, The Daily Star reports that Haaland is set to offered a wage in the region of £600,000 per week. It's clear that the English champions want to keep the striker at any cost.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Clubs from Saudi Arabia have flexed their financial muscle this summer, luring several big names away from the Premier League. As for Real Madrid, they're looking for a Karim Benzema replacement after the Frenchman himself left for Saudi Arabia. Despite Jude Bellingham's electric start, Los Blancos will no doubt be keeping an eye on Haaland's situation.
