"Erling Haaland has become the 35th footballer to join the Premier League's '100 club' by reaching a century of goals in the competition with the opener in Manchester City's fixture at Fulham. The Norwegian striker has also become the fastest player to reach the milestone, with his 100th goal coming in his 111th game - beating Alan Shearer's previous record, set in 1995, by 13 appearances."
"Haaland's total goals-per-game rate in the Premier League is now 0.90, and he may eventually challenge for Shearer's overall goals record of 260 in the division, which launched in 1992-93 when it broke away from the English Football League. Haaland's City contract - a record nine-and-a-half-year deal announced in January - runs through to the end of the 2033-34 season."
