Manchester City forward Erling Haaland has set a new Premier League record after becoming the fastest player to reach 100 league goals.
Erling Haaland has once again etched his name into the Premier League history books, becoming the fastest player to score 100 goals in the competition's history on Tuesday night.
The Manchester City phenomenon achieved the milestone in just 111 appearances, shattering the previous record held by Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer, who needed 124 games to reach the century mark in the 1990s.
Haaland's historic goal came in the 17th minute against Fulham at Craven Cottage. After an earlier attempt struck the post, the Norwegian striker made no mistake with his second chance, firing a powerful shot past goalkeeper Bernd Leno to secure his place in Premier League folklore.
