Erling Haaland's rising football market value

Entities: Enzo Maresca · Premier League · Fantasy Premier League · Erling Haaland · Manchester City

Overview

In July 2026, Manchester City announced that striker Erling Haaland had signed a contract worth a gross £525,000 per week, making him the highest‑paid player in the Premier League. The deal underscored the league’s escalating wage bills and highlighted Haaland’s growing influence, extending beyond football with his investment in the Total Chess World Championship Tour alongside Magnus Carlsen.

Two weeks later, the 2026‑27 Fantasy Premier League price list priced Haaland at £15.5 million, the most expensive player in the game’s history and a rise from his previous record. The pricing update, released ahead of the season opener under new City manager Enzo Maresca, is expected to shape early‑season squad selections for millions of fantasy participants.
