Man City’s Scoring Beast Haaland Valued At €1 BILLION
Rafaela Pimenta, Erling Haaland’s agent, put the Manchester City star’s value at $1 billion and praised his enormous future potential.
Following his £51 million ($63 million) transfer from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City, the Norwegian forward has had a sensational start to life in England. His representative Pimenta has insisted that the Norwegian forward is worth €1 billion because of his startling 31 goals in 27 appearances for City in all competitions.

Pimenta said in an interview with AS: “For me, Haaland is worth 1,000 million. Maybe nobody is going to pay that, but it is the potential that he has when he arrives at a club. With him come fans, goals, sports results, professionalism, digital content, notoriety, sponsors…If you put all this together, his value is an aggregate of many things.
“But the price of a footballer is actually set by a club. I know that nobody is going to pay 700 million for a player, but I am very clear that the value that Erling adds when he arrives at a club is immense, at least 1,000 million.”
The 22-year-old has already shattered a number of Premier League records, and Pimenta is confident that Haaland will continue to beat the greatest players in history by setting new marks.
She said, “His cap is in a place that is not yet known in football. It is the peak of the modern player.
“He will go further than those who came before him. For everything, we now know about the human body, training possibilities, nutrition… He will break all records.”
Haaland is the first player in Premier League history to score hat tricks in three straight home games of the top division. Despite a six-week break for the World Cup, he also made history by becoming the first player in league history to record 20 goals before January.
