It has emerged that his image rights firm, York Promotions Ltd, spent £2.1mil on two planes, according to The Mirror.
The report adds that Haaland runs the firm with his dad, Alfie, who also played for the defending Premier League champions. Three years ago, the duo sold their £2mil Piper M600 private jet and opted to charter.
Moreover, they have been flying with the same company used by Formula 1 star Charles Leclerc.
The report also adds that Haaland recently re-trademarked his own name as he plans to launch his line of energy drinks.
York Promotions Ltd's accounts also disclosed that the Norwegian striker accumulated £12mil in assets for the 12 months ending December, with £7mil in cash and £5mil still owed by top brands.
The former Borussia Dortmund striker has deals with luxury watch brand Breitling and fashion brand Dolce and Gabbana.
Haaland is in his third season in the Premier League with Man City and is one of the team's highest earners.
Last Saturday, he scored his seventh Premier League hat-trick, five shy of club legend Sergio Aguero, who has 12. He now has eight hat-tricks after his superb display against West Ham.
