Along With Creating Goal-Scoring Record on the Field, Manchester City Star Erling Haaland Breaks a 75-Year-Long Premier League Record

Erling Haaland’s historic season in the Premier League this season has been one for the books. The 22-year-old Manchester City star has broken records upon records. Erling Haaland has become one of the most formidable players in the world today. In just his debut season, Haaland broke the goal-scoring record in the Premier League. He managed to surpass Andy Cole’s long-standing record of 34 goals scored in the 1993-94 season, with 35 goals. This record becomes even more impressive when noting that there are still four league fixtures left to play.

Along with that, he has also broken the previous record of goals scored in a season by a Premier League player, with 51 goals across all competitions. Following this record-breaking season, Haaland has also won a prestigious award breaking yet another long-standing record.

Erling Haaland can’t stop breaking records

The Norwegian international has won the prestigious FWA Footballer of the Year award. Not only did he win the award, but he was the clear-cut winner, with an 82% majority of the votes. This is the biggest margin of victory in the 75-year history of the award since its inception in 1947.

In addition, Haaland is also the fourth player to ever receive the FWA award in their first season playing in England. The Premier League witnessed history be made amidst the arduous season of 2022-23. And the records of Haaland’s season do justice to it.

The Norwegian international has certainly made a huge impression for himself in the very first season and with such records. There’s no denying that this season’s golden boy is here to stay. However, the work is not done yet as there’s still a lot to do.

Manchester City aiming for the treble

Manchester City has had a remarkable season, with Haaland leading their attack. The Sky Blues are currently perched at the top of the Premier League table and are just one point ahead of Arsenal – albeit with an extra game in hand. Furthermore, Manchester City also have a final showdown against their arch-rivals Manchester United coming up in the FA Cup final.

Also, City is just two games away from lifting their first Champions League trophy. Manchester City recently played a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid in leg one of their semi-final tie. With three trophies within reach, it’s possible that Manchester City might be able to pull off a treble this season.
