JAKARTA - Manchester City has prepared a crazy plan to secure Erling Haaland from being hunted by Real Madrid. The Citizens management wants to make the Norwegian player the highest-paid player in the English Premier League.

The club's top brass will reportedly hold a meeting with the striker who has now scored the 42 goals. The meeting is planned to be held at the end of the season.

Reportedly, Haaland will be offered a salary of 500 thousand pounds (around Rp9.3 billion) per week. That's so that Haaland doesn't turn to Real Madrid who have prepared a lucrative offer.

Haaland is in the first year of a contract running through 2027 and City plans to extend it for another year.

Haaland currently earns a weekly salary of 375 thousand pounds. That value is already higher than his teammates Kevin De Bruyne and Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea.

However, Haaland's agent, Rafaela Pimenta, has sparked rumors of the player's move to Madrid. He claims Los Blancis are a "mirror" move for the players, including his clients.

The Spanish giant is said to have a plan 'Operation Haaland'. That's what worries City's management.

Sources close to Haaland asserted that the player was completely happy at Manchester. However, City did not want to be lulled and became careless.

City have beaten Real Madrid in paying Haaland's release clause which reached 51.4 million from Borussia Dortmund last summer. Now, the player's value has quadrupled.

City also hopes to end speculation about Haaland's future being able to help the club convince Jude Bellingham to join him in Manchester this summer.
