Erling Haaland has done it again.

The Manchester City goal machine smashed Alan Shearer’s long-standing record by becoming the fastest player ever to hit 100 Premier League goals — reaching the milestone in just 111 games during City’s wild 5-4 win over Fulham on Tuesday night.

The 25-year-old Norwegian — who, fun fact, could have played for England — has been on a tear this season, racking up 20 goals in 19 games across all competitions.

At Craven Cottage, he slipped right back into scoring mode, coolly steering home Jeremy Doku’s cross for the historic strike.

And with that finish, Haaland leapfrogged a roll call of Premier League royalty: Thierry Henry (160 games), Sergio Agüero (147), and Mohamed Salah (162) all left in the dust.

Even Shearer himself reached the big 100 in 124 appearances. Haaland has simply rewritten the timeline.

Fastest to 100 Premier League Goals

1. Erling Haaland – 111 games
2. Alan Shearer – 124
3. Harry Kane – 141
4. Sergio Agüero – 147
5. Thierry Henry – 160
6. Mohamed Salah – 162
7. Ian Wright – 173
8. Robbie Fowler – 175
9. Les Ferdinand – 178
10. Michael Owen & Andy Cole – 185

Despite the achievement, the league’s all-time scoring peak remains far in the distance. Shearer’s towering 260-goal record still stands — but Haaland’s trajectory makes the idea feel less outrageous by the week.

After the match, Haaland was buzzing.

“A proud moment," he told. “The 100 club is a huge thing. To do it this quickly is amazing. I’m proud, I’m happy… a striker for City should score a lot of goals. That’s my job. And I’m not bad at it!"

He’s not wrong. Since arriving from Borussia Dortmund in 2022, Haaland has collected records like souvenirs: a 36-goal debut season, back-to-back Golden Boots, and now 15 goals in 14 league games this term — already three clear in the Golden Boot race.

He’s also scored against every Premier League team he’s faced so far. Sunderland are the only new opponent left this season — and you wouldn’t bet against him adding them to the list.
