Zapping Our Mondial EXCLUDED: Édouard Mendy’s “Little Brother” interview!
The more the weeks pass, the closer we get to Erling Haaland’s final decision. While Barça has officially been removed from the race by Mino Raiola, the player’s agent, there are only two clubs left to secure the Norwegian’s services: Real Madrid and Manchester City. A pitched battle is brewing and on the English side, we are ready to make substantial efforts. Indeed, several English media recently spoke of an envelope of 350 million euros in total to pay the transfer costs, the player’s salary as well as the various bonuses that may surround performances. Except that according to information from Bildthe striker’s entourage would be even more demanding.
70 million bonus?
Indeed, the German media explains that Erling Haaland’s father and his agent are demanding bonuses of 70 million euros: 30 for his father and 40 for his agent. A request which is for the moment refused by the leaders of Manchester City, yet ready to make great efforts on the financial side. “Are they too greedy?” Asks the media even openly. In the meantime, Sebastian Kehl, the sporting director of the BVB, was once again clear on the future of the cyborg after the victory the day before against Wolfsburg (6-1): “There is a termination clause, you know, and there is a deadline. We want to make a decision as soon as possible.” What once again put pressure on all the intermediaries in this file which drags on.
to summarize
Mino Raiola and Erling Haaland’s father have demands at the moment too high for Manchester City who don’t want to pay as much as they are asking. Mino Raiola wants 40 million euros, his father claims 30.
