Erling Haaland has created history. The record for most Premier League goals in a single season stood for three decades but has crumbled with several games to spare.

The 22-year-old rising megastar has produced arguably the greatest debut season in England's top flight since, well, football started, has obliterated the single-season goal record and will be eyeing up the unprecedented target of 40 goals in a campaign.
The greatest Scandinavian threat on British soil since Harald Hardrada in 1066, Haaland continues to pillage Premier League defences at will. Merciless, unforgiving, he is showing no signs of slowing down.
Any questions over whether Haaland could export his continental success to British shores have ceased. There is simply no doubt in anyone's mind: Haaland is here – and able – to conquer.
The 2022/23 season is the one we will all remember as the 'year of Erling' and RadioTimes.com has rounded up all the key stats you need to know about the towering talisman.
We have got all his career stats to date, and will continue to update his goalscoring exploits as the season rumbles on.

Erling Haaland Premier League goals
Haaland has scored 36 Premier League goals in 35 games since arriving at Manchester City in the summer of 2022.
He has already broken records for single-season goals scored in 38-game and longer campaigns.
Nobody has ever scored hat-tricks in three consecutive games until Haaland arrived. The 22-year-old has already surpassed the number of Premier League hat-tricks scored by Cristiano Ronaldo, Jamie Vardy and Frank Lampard, each with hundreds of games under their belts.
The next fastest player to three hat-tricks in Premier League history is Michael Owen, who took 48 games to achieve the feat. Haaland took eight.
Haaland has already scored more goals than last season's Premier League top scorers Mohamed Salah and Son Heung-min, who bagged 23 each. Their totals are very respectable for a 38-game season, yet Haaland topped their tallies with 17 games left to play.
