Erling Haaland, the Manchester City striker, has officially received four Guinness World Records certificates for his astonishing performances in the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and the Nations League.
The 26-year-old Norwegian, in fantastic form also showcased during this summer’s World Cup, has gained these new accolades ahead of the upcoming season.
Four Historic Achievements Entered in Guinness World Records
- Fastest 100 Goals in Premier League: Haaland surpassed the 100-goal mark in a match against Fulham in December 2025, achieving this in just 111 matches.
- Most Goals in a Single Premier League Season: With 36 goals in his debut season, he broke the historical records of Alan Shearer (34), Andy Cole (34), and Mohamed Salah (32).
- Top Scorer in UEFA Nations League History: With 19 goals scored at the national team level, he holds the top position outright.
- Most Goals in a Single Champions League Match: He scored five goals against RB Leipzig in March 2023, equaling the record held by Lionel Messi and Luis Adriano.
In just three and a half years in England, Erling Haaland has transformed from Europe’s most promising young talent into a “goal machine” that breaks records week by week.
Besides his on-field success, the Norwegian also dominates social media. During the World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, he attracted an incredible 24 million new Instagram followers, confirming his status as one of the biggest stars in the sports world.
Now, the Norwegian forward awaits the start of the new English football season. This weekend, on August 16, Manchester City will face Arsenal in the English Super Cup, and a week later, on August 23, the “Citizens” will debut in the new Premier League season against Bournemouth.
