According to reports, ERLING HAALAND is prepared to take the fast lane by spending £2.7 MILLION on a brand-new supercar comparable to that of Formula One.
The 23-year-old Norwegian striker is now going through a difficult period given his lofty expectations in front of goal.

Off the pitch, though, he supposedly intends to build a Mercedes AMG One to order in order to put his collection of luxury cars into overdrive.
With five Formula One engines, Haaland’s new powertrain can reach an incredible top speed of 219 mph.
The supercar can hit 186 mph in 15.6 seconds and accelerate from 0 to 124 mph in only seven seconds.
It is estimated that Mercedes is producing 275 of the unique vehicles.
The story of Haaland’s new vehicle was first reported by the Norwegian newspaper Dagens Naeringsliv.
They further claim that he bought the German-made beast with his childhood friend Ole Ertvaag.
Both Haaland and financier Ertvaag were raised in the western county of Rogaland in Norway.
The reputable publication, which is Norway’s version of the Financial Times, claims that the price of the “monster car” will exceed £2 million.
Additionally, the entire cost will exceed £2.7 million when taxes are taken into account.
The investing firm HiTecVision was founded by Ertvaag.
Like Haaland, he is a well-known auto enthusiast.
The former striker for Borussia Dortmund, who helped City win the championship in his debut campaign at the Etihad, had bought a Mercedes AMG GLE coupe for a somewhat lower £90,000.
Since then, Haaland has indulged in a £300,000 Rolls Royce Cullinan SUV.
Additionally, he owns a £120,000 worth of vehicles: a Range Rover Sport and an Audi RS6 Avant.
