The Daily Mail reports that the watches were luxury engraved watches which he gave out during the club's last training session. Each watch is understood to cost roughly 12,400 euros. Haaland, therefore, used a total of 490,000 euros. He also gifted members of the backroom staff with Omega watches. The Norwegian is now headed to Manchester City where it is expected he will pen a five-year deal. He will become one of the club's top earners with a figure of 385,000 euros per week.
