Which record? Haaland warns he can get even better

The Norwegian forward, who faces former club Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Wednesday, has netted a staggering 26 goals in 16 games for club and country this season. Former England striker Alan Shearer said last month that if Haaland stays long enough, he will "no doubt" shatter his own all-time Premier League record of 260 goals.

Haaland, 25, was asked at City's pre-match press conference on Tuesday whether he could beat his record for goals in a season. "Not to sound arrogant, but which one?" he asked. The reporter clarified that he was asking about Haaland's tally of 52 goals for City in 2022/23, when the club won the Treble of Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup.

"I can't think about records I can break," he said. "That's the last thing I think of. I try to help the team win games," the striker told.
