This includes his salary, agent fees and bonuses.Haaland joined German club Dortmund from Austrian side Salzburg two years ago. He scored 62 goals from 67 matches for Dortmund.
Manchester City lacked a striker after Sergio Aguero so they have brought Haaland to the team. From 2000 to 2003, Holland's father Alfie Haaland also played for City.
