He surpassed Salah.. Haaland enters the Guinness Book of Records

Press reports revealed that Norwegian international star Erling Haaland obtained 4 new certificates from the Guinness Book of World Records after his distinguished contributions with the first football team of Manchester City.
Haaland wore the Manchester City shirt coming from Borussia Dortmund and was able to achieve great success under the leadership of Pep Guardiola.

The newspaper “Marca” said that Haaland’s most notable achievement is that he became the fastest player to reach 100 goals in the history of the English Premier League after playing only 111 matches.

Haaland achieved this achievement on December 2, 2025, after his goal against Fulham, making history from its widest gates.

His second number is that he broke the record of Egyptian legend Mohamed Salah if he became the player in the history of the English Premier League who scored the most goals in just one season.

In the 2022-2023 season, Haaland scored 36 goals in 38 matches in the English Premier League, and this was his first season with Pep Guardiola’s squad.

The third number is that Haaland is considered the all-time top scorer in the European Nations League, with 19 goals between 2020 and 2024, four goals ahead of his closest competitor.

Haaland also stood side by side with Lionel Messi and Luiz Adriano by scoring five goals in one Champions League match after his hat-trick against Leipzig.

The Guinness Book of Records indicates that Haaland achieved strong popularity outside the field, as after the 2026 World Cup ended, his personal account increased about 24 million followers on the social networking site “Instagram.” (Russia Today)
