Haaland Aims to Break More Records in the Premier League
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is aiming for a new challenge by breaking more records this season, after securing the Premier League top scorer title for the past two years.
The Norwegian is on the brink of surpassing several records in the Premier League, but he faces a tough challenge in breaking the record held by Egyptian star Mohamed Salah. This sets up a unique rivalry between the two stars in the upcoming season.
Competing for the top scorer title may prove difficult for Salah, given the strong technical consistency Manchester City has enjoyed under Guardiola for years, compared to Liverpool, who will have a new coach, Arne Slot, next season.
Haaland has several advantages, including his age and the support of City’s talented wingers and playmakers, who can create more scoring opportunities for him than Salah.
Haaland has scored 43 goals with his left foot in the Premier League, an impressive tally over two seasons, but he still trails far behind Mohamed Salah’s record of 125 goals.

But what if the Norwegian striker stays with Manchester City for the next five seasons? And what if the Sky Blues continue to dominate the Premier League while bolstering their squad with even more talented players?
If Haaland maintains his current scoring rate, he could break all records, including the challenging one associated with Mohamed Salah’s left-footed goals.
The future of both players in the Premier League is uncertain. Rumors suggest Mohamed Salah may leave for the Saudi Pro League this summer, with just one year left on his contract. Meanwhile, the media speculates that Haaland may fulfill his dream of joining Real Madrid in the next year or two.
