According to the English website The Athleticthe Norwegian star of Manchester CityErling Haaland, is close to signing a millionaire contract worth BRL 126 million with Nike, the sporting goods brand that has sponsored him since he was 14, but with which he chose not to renew his contract in 2021.
Since then, the player uses boots and accessories from other brands and has been probed by Adidas and Puma. However, he ended up opting to continue with the American brand and must sign a new contract with very high figures.

With that, City’s number 9 became the Manchester club’s player with the most goals scored in a single Premier League season, surpassing Argentine Sergio Aguero, one of the club’s great idols.
