MANCHESTER CITY wonderkid Rico Lewis will see his wages skyrocket by a whopping 400 per cent.
Lewis, 18, has hit the ground running ever since his senior City debut in August during a Premier League clash against Bournemouth.
The right-back also made history by becoming the Citizens' youngest ever Champions League scorer with a goal in the 3-1 victory over Sevilla during his full debut in the competition.
According to the Daily Star, City are set to reward the England Under-19 international with a bumper new deal that will see him earn £25,000 per week.
That means the defender will be bagging an approximate £1,300,000 per year.
Lewis, who has been on £5,000 per week, will now be making more than fellow young star Cole Palmer, who is the senior squad's lowest earner with £20,000 per week.

Haaland – the second highest earner – makes £19,500,000 per year, which means he bags over £53,000 per day.
And top earner De Bruyne, who is on £20,800,000 per year, earns almost £57,000 per day.
But Lewis is definitely on the right path as he has already amassed 18 appearances across all competitions this season.

The teenage sensation is also often being preferred by manager Pep Guardiola ahead of Kyle Walker.
