[Saba Sports News] According to Swiss media, Manchester City forward Erling Haaland owes a fine of 60 Swiss Francs, which means he may have to spend a day in jail the next time he goes to Switzerland. Haaland’s contract with Manchester City will expire in 2027, and there have been recent rumors that Manchester City has offered the Norwegian a renewal contract worth over £500,000 per week. For Haaland, a fine of 60 Swiss Francs is obviously trivial. Therefore, when his name appeared on the “official announcement form” in the Canton of Vaud (located in the Lake Geneva region of Switzerland) on October 25, people were quite surprised. The announcement indicated that Haaland had not paid a fine of 60 Swiss Francs. Although this amount is insignificant compared to his income, if he still has not paid when he visits Switzerland next time, he may be forced to face a brief detention for a day. However, the likelihood of Haaland actually serving a day in jail is low, as he can avoid punishment simply by paying the fine. Since 2023, Haaland’s father, Alf-Inge Haaland, has been living in Andermatt, Switzerland, and it would be unfortunate if the Norwegian striker delays celebrating Christmas with his father by a day.
