Borussia Dortmund advisor Matthias Sammer joked that he 'passed out' when he heard about the money involved in Erling Haaland's potential transfer to Manchester City.
Sportsmail revealed last week that Pep Guardiola's side are the frontrunners to sign the Norwegian striker in the summer in a deal that is likely to be worth nearly £100million.
Haaland has a £63million release clause, while there would also be a signing-on bonus and a substantial payment to his agent Mino Raiola.
In addition, Manchester City are ready to make the 21-year-old the highest paid player in the Premier League with wages of £500,000 per week.
