Haaland reaches 100 goals involvement in record time

The records may have slowed down as his goalscoring enters more human levels, but Erling Haaland reached another landmark in Manchester City's 2-2 draw with Brighton last Saturday.

His penalty meant he reached 100 English Premier League goal contributions (goals and assists combined) in just his 94th game.

The previous record-holder was Alan Shearer, who took 100 matches to reach that level.

Haaland, who joined City from Borussia Dortmund for £51.2m in June 2022, and Shearer, are the only players who reached the figure in their third season in the Premier League.

Shearer had played a few seasons in the old First Division that do not count towards this record.

Sergio Aguero, Thierry Henry, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Les Ferdinand and Matt le Tissier all managed it in their fourth seasons.

Eric Cantona, Mohamed Salah (including two with Chelsea) and Andy Cole took into their fifth campaign - with Harry Kane in his sixth - including the first season he only played once in.
