Why Erling Haaland's new Man City deal is facing delays - revealed
Erling Haaland is on the verge of agreeing to a new Manchester City deal which will reportedly make him the highest-paid player in the Premier League.
The Mirror report that there is still one aspect of the terms of the new deal that is delaying the player's signature on the dotted lines. The 24-year-old has a £150 million ($189m) release clause in his existing contract, which the club want to exclude from the new deal, but the player's representatives want it to remain. However, there could be a compromise in the negotiations where both parties agreed to increase the value to £200m ($253m).
Barcelona consider offering contract extension to Szczesny
Barcelona are reportedly considering offering new signing Wojciech Szczesny a new contract - just weeks after he joined the club.
The 34-year-old goalkeeper reversed his decision to retire from football to sign for Barcelona in early October as a result of first-choice option Marc-Andre ter Stegen's knee injury. Although he is yet to play for the club, MARCA claims Blaugrana sporting director Deco wants to extend the Pole's deal beyond the end of the current season.
Barca & PSG ready to pounce on Kvaratskhelia as contract talks stall
Per Sky Italia, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia could leave Napoli as his contract talks have stalled amid interest from Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

The player, though, could lower his demand if the club agree to keep his release clause under €100m (£83m).
