Summary: Manchester City - Newcastle 0: 5 (Sport 1)
England are confident: despite the high price, even though the team would have run excellently without him, the Arling Holland deal will pay off big for Manchester City.
After the Blues today (Tuesday) officially announced an agreement with Borussia Dortmund on the purchase of the Norwegian star for 75 million euros - they tried in England to shed light on the exact amounts.
Along with the relatively low release clause it will pay Dortmund, City will bear additional heavy costs, including commissions to the player's father, the agency representing him (of Mino Raiola, who recently passed away) and the Netherlands itself.
Other groups interested in the Netherlands may have been put off by the sums demanded by the Netherlands and its entourage, but the BBC reports that senior City officials described the deal as "fantastic in relation to the Netherlands' capabilities, age and market value".
City gave up the signing of Harry Kane from Tottenham last summer for no less high sums, and according to the BBC "now it has paid off big for her".
The Netherlands' contract is expected to be for five years, and his salary will be around £ 250,000 a week (£ 13 million a year).
The Blues insisted that Holland's salary should not exceed that of Kevin de Bruyne, a senior earner on the team, "to convey a message to the rest of the team's players that Holland is no more important than anyone else to the club."

Professionally, the arrival of Holland will force Pep Guardiola to change quite a bit.
In recent years the esteemed coach has played little with a natural striker, and now the whole team will have to adapt.
The question is whether now that they are close to winning a third championship in four years, Holland is the man the team really needs.
"It is still impossible to say that the Netherlands is the missing piece to make City a perfect team, but it will definitely add a new dimension to it that it does not have," analyzed former BBC player Mika Richards, a former City player.
"His finishing ability on the field is no less amazing, and I still think that although City are a very effective team, they miss quite a bit. With the Netherlands, it will not happen to them. In that sense, it's a fantastic signing."
