City announced the deal — covering 10 years from the start of this season — on Friday for the 24-year-old Haaland, who has scored 111 goals in 125 games since joining the club from Borussia Dortmund in 2022.

When he joined City few thought that the Norwegian would stay at the club for an extended period — so what has changed?

Erling Haaland has signed a massive 10-year contract with Manchester City to keep him at the club until 2034. The Norwegian striker, whose previous contract was set to run until 2027, has been scoring at a phenomenal rate since joining City two-and-a-half years ago, amassing 111 goals across 126 appearances.
