Erling Haaland's agent has predicted the Manchester City striker will become football’s first £1billion player.
City signed Haaland for a bargain £51.2million in the summer after triggering the release clause in his contract at Borussia Dortmund, and the 22-year-old has scored 20 goals in 14 games for Pep Guardiola’s side.
Haaland’s agent Rafaela Pimenta believes the prolific Norwegian’s market value is going to rocket in future judging by comparisons to other stars such as Kylian Mbappe of Paris Saint-Germain.
