The online world is abuzz because his purchase is insanely expensive and deadly fast. The Manchester City star decided to buy a Mercedes AMG-One. It's a vehicle many dream of, but only a few can afford to buy.

This is a unique model. Only 275 units were produced, which affects the price. Haaland paid around £2.75 million for this Mercedes model, equivalent to over £12 million.

This vehicle is made unique by the fact that it has exactly the same engine as the Mercedes Formula 1 racing cars. This translates to specific figures. 1,063 horsepower, a top speed of approximately 353 km/h, and it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds.

Unique cars attract motor enthusiasts with unlimited budgets. "Marca" reveals that the Mercedes AMG One is owned by, among others, David Coulthard, Valtteri Bottas, Ion Tiriac, and Mark Wahlberg.

Erling Haaland already has in his collection several enviable cars. These include a Ferrari SP2 Monza, Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Mercedes AMG GLE 63 S 4Matic Coupe, Audi RS 6 Avant, and a Range Rover Sport P510e.

Such a richly equipped garage would not be possible without his star contract at Manchester City. Unofficial findings indicate that more than £21 million make their way into the account of one of the world's best football players each year.
