Callum Wilson has set the bar high when it comes to his goalscoring aims with Newcastle United - insisting that only Alan Shearer could have more strikes to his name than him by the time he's done at St James' Park.
The number 9 grabbed two more goals in the 3-1 win at Southampton to take his tally for the 2022/23 season to 15 strikes. The former Coventry City and AFC Bournemouth climbed above both Ayoze Perez and Rob Lee to claim eighth place in the club's all-time Premier League scorers table.
With 35 Premier League goals to his name in total for Newcastle since signing from AFC Bournemouth in 2020, Wilson lies just 11 goals behind Peter Beardsley in second spot. He could rise above Nobby Solano and Papiss Cisse (both on 37) before the season is out.
