"No, not at all, far off. No one can get close to them, so no, the 25-year-old said. This season Haaland has already scored 26 times in 16 appearances in all competitions, registering 13 Premier League strikes, four in the Champions League, and nine for Norway. City could play a maximum of 52 more games this term, while Norway could have 12 more matches if they reach the World Cup final plus a yet to be decided number of friendlies."
"I don't think of this. Alan Shearer, whose 260 Premier League goals is the competition high, believes Haaland will break his record. I don't really know any records, but this one I know, said the centre-forward. I can't think about records I can break I try to help the team win football games. I know it's boring, I know you want me to say the complete opposite, but it's not how it is."
Erling Haaland says he is far off the level of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo and that no one can get close to them. He has scored 26 goals in 16 appearances across all competitions this season, including 13 Premier League goals, four in the Champions League and nine for Norway. Manchester City could play up to 52 further matches this term while Norway could have up to 12 more if they reach the World Cup final plus additional friendlies. Haaland scored 56 goals in 2022–23 including national team matches and says he is on a good way to better that total. He focuses on helping the team win rather than chasing records, acknowledges Alan Shearer expects he will break the Premier League scoring record, and joked that VAR has caught him offside 18 times since joining City.
