On August 18th, The Mirror reported that Manchester City are preparing to double Rodri’s salary in a new contract, and also plan to raise Erling Haaland’s wages. The Citizens hope these moves will stabilize the squad and make them even more competitive.
It is understood that Man City plan to double Rodri’s salary in a new deal, which will see him earn £375,000 a year, putting him on par with Haaland and De Bruyne, making him one of the highest earners at the club. Additionally, Man City are planning to give Haaland a pay rise this season to keep hold of their main goalscorer.
As for Kevin De Bruyne, another key player in the Man City squad, the club are also in talks with him. If the Belgian wants to stay at the Etihad, he will have to accept a pay cut, but will be compensated with a hefty bonus. De Bruyne is already 33 years old and his contract with Man City expires next summer, with clubs in Saudi Arabia and MLS interested in signing him.
