"The Norway forward is in the middle of a relatively quiet spell for his club, but his 22 league goals have helped City to where they are. The big change for Haaland this year? He's becoming more of an all-around contributor and his work rate is through the roof, to the extent that he has also notched seven assists, second only to Bruno Fernandes and one behind his best total of eight back in the 2022-23 campaign. That's 29 goal contributions."
The 2025-26 Premier League season approaches its climax with Arsenal holding the top position ahead of Manchester City in a two-team title battle. The Champions League qualification race remains competitive, featuring Liverpool, Aston Villa, Manchester United, and Chelsea. Wolves appear destined for relegation, sitting 17 points from safety, while Burnley faces a difficult fight. The third relegation spot remains uncertain among Nottingham Forest, Tottenham, and Leeds United. The Player of the Year award lacks a clear frontrunner, with multiple standout performers making compelling cases. Erling Haaland emerges as a strong candidate, having scored 22 league goals while contributing seven assists, demonstrating improved all-around play beyond pure goal-scoring.
