Erling Haaland is expected to become the richest football player in the world very soon, surpassing names like Messi and Ronaldo, who have held the lead in such a list for years.
The warning was given by his manager, Rafaela Pimenta, who revealed that she has received endless requests from various sponsors and that very soon the most expensive sponsorship agreement in the history of football will be formalized.
"I have never seen such a great interest from sponsors for a football player. I have been in this market for 20 years and this is happening for the first time with Haaland. Very soon we will announce a sponsorship deal, which will undoubtedly be the most expensive in the history of football. There has been a lot of talk that the value of his card could reach 1 billion, but in the near future I don't believe that something like that can happen. Maybe many years later, there may be clubs willing to pay such a figure for a footballer", declared Haaland's manager.
