Rafaela Pimenta, who represents the interests of Manchester City striker, answered a question about Erling's potential value in the transfer market: "One billion. That is what I think because if you put together his football value, his image value, his sponsor value it is for sure one billion. I think Erling will be the first player to achieve a transfer around this amount." Pimenta claimed. Besides, the details of the release clause in Erling Haaland's contract with Man City were also revealed to the public. The fact of the Norwegian forward's contract including a clause worth 200 million euros from 2024 has been confirmed again, but it will apply to all clubs except British ones, while Gianluca di Marzio denies the latter. If someone offers 200 million euros for Haaland in 2024, Man City will be forced to let him go. Haaland will be making transfer decisions himself. It is noted that the inclusion of a release clause in the contract was the main condition from Norwegian's representatives during negotiations with Man City.

France Football magazine has published detailed voting results for the Ballon d'Or in 2022. Benzema was the undisputed leader with 549 points overall. Karim Benzema won the Ballon d'Or by 356 points, the second-largest margin of victory after Cristiano Ronaldo's 429-point difference in 2016. No less notable is the figure of Cristiano Ronaldo, who received zero points in the poll. The Portuguese marksman took the 20th place probably because of his past merits, as he took the Ballon d'Or five times earlier on, according to Goal.com.
