Erling Haaland is quickly on his way to becoming one of the all-time legends of the Premier League<\/a> after blitzing 100 goals in just 111 games for Manchester City<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quite simply, the Norwegian is one of the most lethal finishers in the business and he really does make it look easy out there on the pitch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before Haaland notched his century he already had 298 career goals and 19 from 15 games this season. The 25-year-old sets himself incredibly high standards after netting 52 in his first season before then hitting 38 in 2023-24 and 34 in 2024-25. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But this season he looks to be going from strength to strength and if he stays in the Premier League long-term it’s surely not going to be long until he breaks Alan Shearer’s all-time goalscoring record. After all, he’s already broken one of his long-held landmarks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a list of just some of the incredible records Haaland boasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fastest to 100 Premier League goals <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before Haaland, Shearer was the quickest to grab his century, taking just 124 games to do so. His nearest challenger was Harry Kane, who took 141 to get to 100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Haaland has made the achievement look like easy work, blowing both players out of the water by doing it in 111 games. That is a record that will surely take some beating.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Haaland got to 40 Champions League strikes in just 35 appearances after scoring against RB Leipzig in the 2023-24 season. The following season he would reach his half century in just 49 appearances – which is another record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    By comparison, Lionel Messi took 66 games to score 50 goals in the Champions League, while Mbappe took 79.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
