ERLING HAALAND's new Manchester City contract is worth a whopping £260million.
The striker has signed a ten-year contract with Etihad.
Haaland has seen his previous salary of £375,000 a week rise to £500,000.
And City chiefs have agreed to make the deal backdated to the start of this season, meaning he will collect an extra £3.25million owed since then.
The 23-year-old's contract is worth £26 million per season.
This equates to an incredible £2,166,666 per month.
Haaland will earn around £71,000 a day as part of the new deal, and almost £3,000 an hour.
He earns 82 cents per second for the duration of the deal.
The prolific striker had been sporadically linked with Real Madrid.
But after becoming a father, Haaland bought a six-bed mansion with girlfriend Isabel Haugseng Johansen, 21, after the couple decided to “put down some roots”.
Pep Guardiola's decision to extend his contract for a further two seasons is also said to have helped Haaland decide to extend his stay.
Putting pen to paper, he said: “I am very pleased to have signed my new contract and can look forward to spending even more time at this great club.
“Manchester City is a special club, full of fantastic people with great supporters and it's the kind of environment that helps get the best out of everyone.
“I would also like to thank Pep, his coaching staff, my teammates and everyone at the Club as they have all helped me so much over the years. They made it a special place and now I am City, whatever happens.
“Now I want to keep developing, keep working to get better and do my best to help us achieve more success in the future.”
Haaland has now surpassed teammate Kevin De Bruyne on £400,000-a-week as the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
He has won the Premier League Golden Boot twice and has scored an impressive 111 goals in 126 City appearances since joining from Borussia Dortmund.
