Erling Haaland soon behind bars? This seems totally improbable, but according to the Swiss media

Blickthe Norwegian attacker faces a prison sentence. The motive? He would not have paid a fine of 60 Swiss francs, or around 65 euros.

If we are to believe “the official notice sheet”, that is to say the equivalent of the Official Journal but at the level of the canton of Vaud, the former Borussia Dortmund player would therefore be on the radar of the justice system . He might even end up in prison the next time he sets foot on Confederacy soil. Especially since his father, Alf-Inge, lives in Andermatt in the canton of Uri.

Haaland in the tradition of Ronaldo and Messi?

In the past, several big football stars have been sentenced to prison. In January 2019, Cristiano Ronaldo was sentenced to 23 months and a fine of 19 million euros by the Spanish courts for tax evasion between 2011 and 2014. In 2016, Lionel Messi received 21 months for the same reason. However, the Portuguese and the Argentinian never found themselves behind bars, unlike Diego Maradona, convicted of possession and distribution of drugs in 1991.

Regarding Erling Haaland, he just needs to pay his fine to avoid any problems. On the football level, Manchester City would have offered him a new contract according to The Sun. The native of Leeds could receive 24 million euros per year, not including bonuses.
