PHIL FODEN will land a bumper new contract this summer if Man City sign Erling Haaland, reports say.

Rising star Foden, 21, agreed a new deal in principle with the Premier League champions back in October but has yet to sign on the dotted line.


Manchester City are among the front runners to land Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund this summer.

According to Daily Star, Haaland is looking for a salary of £500,00-a-week, and that could have huge implications on Foden's pending deal.

The England playmaker agreed in principle to a £150,000-a-week new contract at the Etihad.

But if Haaland signs for a whopping £500k a week, it would mean City may have to review Foden's terms.

Both men are turning 22 this summer and Foden is already one of the brightest stars in the Premier League.

Manchester City's top three highest earners are Belgian playmaker Kevin de Bruyne, Jack Grealish, and Raheem Sterling on more than £200k a week.

Another aspect that could go in Foden's favour is the fact that he could be one England's key men in Qatar, when it comes around in the winter this year. 

Haaland has scored 23 goals in 24 apperances for Dortmund and along with Foden has become of the world's best young player's over the last few years.
