With Erling Haaland reportedly going close to a Premier League move in this transfer window, how much money he asked for in wages has now reportedly been revealed.
Before securing Romelu Lukaku's services from Inter Milan, last season's UEFA Champions League winners Chelsea were said to be in discussions with Haaland and his agent Mino Raiola.
According to BILD, the Dutch-Italian super-agent was believed to demand an incredible €50 million (R876 million) a year for the 21-year-old striker, which might have put the London club off during negotiations.
Raiola reportedly also asked for an astonishing €40 million (R701 million) in agent fees.
Haaland continues to be linked with a move to the Premier League, however, with Manchester United said to be heavily interested in his signature.
The Norway international played under Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Molde in his home country, and went close to reuniting with the manager when he left RB Salzburg in January last year.
Real Madrid are also credited with an interest in the striker, who has scored 62 goals in 63 matches to date for Borussia Dortmund.
