Erling Haaland is widely regarded as one of the finest footballers of the modern era. He leads the Premier League's scoring charts with eighteen goals and shares the top spot in the Champions League alongside Kylian Mbappé and Harry Kane. It is the Norwegian forward who is seen as one of the main contenders for the next Ballon d'Or.

However, all of this does not prevent Haaland from enjoying a fulfilling life off the pitch.

The Norwegian press reported that the striker has teamed up with collector Ole Ertvaag to acquire one of the 275 units of the German hypercar, the Mercedes AMG-One.

This car boasts an intriguing feature: its engine is the same one used in the Mercedes Formula-1 car that clinched seven world championship titles from 2014 to 2020 (adapted, of course, for regular road use).

The cost of this vehicle is estimated at €3.2 million, including all taxes. While it may be a significant sum, it is surely not a concern for the Norwegian forward, as reports suggest his weekly earnings amount to €1.05.

The car itself is truly extraordinary. With a power output of 1000 horsepower, the AMG One's top speed is limited to 352 km/h.

Although he does not boast about it, Haaland seems to have good taste in cars. Another gem in his collection on wheels is none other than the Ferrari SP2 Monza, one of the most exclusive models from the Italian brand. This car seems to have a magnet for forwards, as Zlatan Ibrahimovic also owns one.
