Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has signed a groundbreaking 10-year contract, extending his stay at the club until the summer of 2034, the club announced on Friday. The 24-year-old Norwegian, who joined City from Borussia Dortmund in 2022, has been a key figure in the club’s recent triumphs.
Haaland’s initial contract was set to expire in 2027, but this new deal underscores the club’s belief in his crucial role in their future. “Erling Haaland has signed a new 10-year Manchester City contract, keeping him at the Club until the summer of 2034,” the official statement read.
Expressing his excitement, Haaland said, “I am really happy to have signed my new contract and to be able to look forward to spending even more time at this great club. Manchester City is a special club, full of fantastic people with amazing supporters, and it’s the type of environment that helps bring the best out of everybody.”
He also thanked his teammates, manager Pep Guardiola, and the club’s staff, adding, “They have made this such a special place to be, and now I am City no matter what. I want to keep developing, keep working to get better, and help us achieve more success going forward.”
Since joining, Haaland has made an extraordinary impact. In his debut 2022/23 season, he scored 52 goals across all competitions—the highest tally by a Premier League player in a single season—breaking the previous league record of 36 goals. His contributions were instrumental in City’s historic treble-winning campaign, which included the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League titles.
Haaland’s debut season also earned him numerous individual accolades, including PFA Player of the Year, Premier League Player of the Year, Young Player of the Year, and the Football Writers’ Association Player of the Year awards.
Despite an injury that kept him sidelined for nearly two months during the 2023/24 season, Haaland maintained his prolific form, netting 38 goals in 45 appearances. This included 27 Premier League goals, securing him a second consecutive Golden Boot.
City’s Director of Football, Txiki Begiristain, emphasized the importance of Haaland’s long-term commitment. “Everyone at the club is absolutely delighted that Erling has signed his new contract. The fact he has been signed for so long demonstrates our commitment to him as a player and his love for this club. He has made an incredible impact already, and his amazing numbers and records speak for themselves. But beyond his natural talent and ability, it’s Erling’s dedication, professionalism, humility, and desire to keep improving that set him apart. If he works hard, he will create an incredible legacy at this football club,” Begiristain stated.
Haaland’s scoring feats continue to astound. With 21 goals already in the ongoing 2024/25 season, his total tally at City stands at an impressive 111 goals in 126 appearances. He has risen to 15th on the club’s all-time scoring list and continues to break records. In September, he became the 19th player in City history to reach 100 goals.
