Haaland thus breaks the record for any player who scores more than 50 goals in one season in all competitions, which has been set since 1931, that is, 92 years ago

With his fifty goals this season for Manchester City, Haaland is ahead of any other player in the Premier League clubs with 21 goals in the current football season 2022-23 and has scored more goals than 7 teams in the Premier League in all competitions this season

Not only that, but the Norwegian giant continued to break records in the Premier League after with his debut goal for Manchester City he raised his tally of goals to 34, equaling the record for the most goals for one player in one season in the English Championship, recorded by the names of players Andy Cole (1993-1994) and Alan Shearer (1994-1995)

Haaland is ahead of the second place in the ranking of scorers by 10 goals, which is the English player and Tottenham star Harry Kane, who scored 24 goals, and whose team is playing an important match against Liverpool at Anfield later today
