Erling Haaland has etched his name into Premier League history, becoming the first player ever to score nine goals in the first four matches of a season.
His remarkable performance includes back-to-back hat-tricks against Ipswich Town and West Ham United.
Although Haaland shone brightly in club football, his international outings were not as stellar.
Former Norway boss Egil Olsen harshly criticized Haaland’s efforts during the match against Kazakhstan, calling it one of the “worst things I’ve seen” from the young striker.
However, he rebounded quickly, netting the crucial winning goal three days later against Austria.
Haaland is already the clear favorite for a third-consecutive Premier League Golden Boot.
His record-breaking debut season tally of 36 goals now seems within reach.
Haaland is also closing in on 100 goals in all competitions for Manchester City, with 99 goals in just 103 games since joining from Borussia Dortmund for £51 million in 2022.
His Premier League goal tally stands at an astonishing 72 from just 70 appearances.
