£300k per week is obscene. The say 'earns' when I think it should be paid as certainly he is not 'earning it'!

Whatever that is one of the reasons why football is messed up.
Of course it's obscene - Haaland earns something like £1m a week with just his salary and guaranteed bonuses. £45m in one season not counting endorsements etc. The last 4 or 5 seasons the already massive salaries of the PL players have almost doubled again. It affects every one of the 92 clubs indirectly, the same way house prices in central London affect those in Blackburn [another thread there perhaps]. Generations of Haalands will never have to work, and will no doubt enjoy celebrity life aka the young Beckhams. What fun !
