Erling Haaland flaunted a luxury watch as he starred in a new advert.

The Manchester City goal machine is the face of the high-end Breitling brand and has been filming for the company, whose timepieces cost around £7,500. While that would be out of reach for the overwhelming majority of us, it is a drop in the ocean for the Norwegian, who reputedly earns approaching £1million per week at money-bags City.

Pictures of filming for the ad, which took place in London, see Haaland dressed in old-fashion clobber and clutching throwback leather football with the pricey watch clearly visible.

Haaland has been out of action for the last month due to injury, although he is close to a return and could play a part in Saturday’s trip to Newcastle. City boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed the 23-year-old is back in light training and hinted there was an outside chance he could figure at St James’ Park.

“Erling is a little better, his bone, so we need to be careful,” said Guardiola. “[He’s had] two or three sessions and feels good. Hopefully, [he can play soon but], I don’t know for Newcastle.”

Without any football over the festive period, Haaland partied with Anthony Joshua at an extravagant New Year’s Eve bash in Dubai. Haaland and his girlfriend, Isabel Haugseng, joined the former boxing champion in a stunning do hosted by clothing brand Pretty Little Thing’s owner Umar Kamani.

Once he returns to City action, he will join forces with playmaker Kevin De Bruyne, who has just returned to action having been sidelined since the opening weekend of the season.

The Belgian came off the bench during the 5-0 FA Cup win over Huddersfield at the weekend.

Guardiola said: “He played really good minutes. We thought it was better to play the second half than from the beginning when the game was tighter.
