But the numbers most likely put Haaland out of reach of other teams, including Barcelona, which is mired in a financial crisis that led it to lose Lionel Messi for free last summer, and Bayern Munich, whose sporting director said recently that adding Haaland “ doesn’t make any sense” for the perennial German champions since the team already employs a world-class striker in Robert Lewandowski.

Telegraph Sport visits Bryne, the Norwegian town where Man City-bound Haaland made his name and where they consider him one of their own.

As a child growing up in Bryne, having come back from Norway, Erling had a soft spot for the three English teams his father played for but he supported Arsenal, and would wear the kit to training. He moved to Salzburg when he was 18 and he did not play in the first team [for Red Bull] at first,” Berntsen says. Pobel starts work every night at 1.30am, painting with a repurposed fire extinguisher, and finishes as the first cars come into town around 5.30am.

Erling is robust and self-dependent.” At Molde, Berntsen estimates that the skinny teenage Erling added 20kgs of muscle and, as the goals came, all of Europe was watching him. He is now separated from Erling's mother, Gry, and has two more children with a new partner, but the pair are grandparents to their daughter Gabrielle’s child. “He had to have more of a challenge but we did not want to take him away from his friends.” In club football Erling and his team-mates first played three against three games, building up gradually to nine against nine. That was not the only benefit to Bryne of Alf’s return from the Premier League. He also opened the town’s first nightclub. The Bryne academy philosophy under Berntsen, also a schoolteacher, was that the club’s players should play different sports to improve their movement. It was a strong group that eventually produced five professionals and staying in it meant that Erling could form lasting friendships. It was hard to get a move overseas in those days, and anyway, he says, it would have been difficult to leave the farm given his father’s health problems. Thirty years after he retired in 1986, Erling was to make his Bryne FK first team debut aged 15.
