The Norwegian has developed into the world&#8217;s most lethal striker this season as he leads Manchester City in goalscoring. The striker joined the English club for just \u00a351.2million, which is considered a steal now when his impact his measured since he moved to the Etihad. The striker is one of the best players in the world now, and he has shown he will keep getting better and that means there is room for more endorsement deals and even salary increases. Pimenta says via Matchplug: \u2018I think Erling will be the first player to achieve a transfer that will be around \u00a31bn. \u2018If you put together his football value, his image value, his sponsor value, it is for sure \u00a31bn. It\u2019s normal to compare Erling with Mbappe so you have a little bit of an idea of the market.\u2019"}
