A target for Lazio in the past, it appears that Manchester City are trying their best to put an end to any speculation surrounding Oscar Bobb.
That’s because, according to Arilas Ould-Saada for TV2 in Norway is reporting that the 20-year-old will sign a five year contract with the Cityzens on Monday.
Not only that, but he will also see his salary ‘more than triple’, meaning he is expecting to earn just under £50k/week at Manchester City, tying him down until 2029.
TV2 look at the practicality of such a large amount of money, as they point out the youngster will be in a position to ‘support his entire family’ and be ‘financially independent for the rest of his life’.
The forward was signed from Vålerenga’s U19s back in 2019, and has slowly climbed through the ranks at Manchester City, impressing Pep Guardiola enough to get him some appearances in the first-team.
Bobb has played 16 times for the Premier League side this season, scoring two goals and picking up two assists in a team full of stars, and this latest move shows just how important they think he can be for them going forward.
🚨 Norwegian wonder kid Oscar Bobb (20) will sign a five-year contract with Manchester City today which will see his salary more than triple, closing in on £50.000/week. Current deal was set to expire in 2026, the new one ties him to City until June 2029. https://t.co/auev6N3ur1
