Erling Haaland is clearly not just intent on upstaging the likes of Alan Shearer as his scintillating debut season in the Premier League continues.
The Norwegian striker has already claimed the record for most goals scored in a single campaign (35), usurping previous record holders Shearer and Andy Cole (both 34), whilst also beating Mohamed Salah's tally (32) for a 38-game season.
And Haaland is now taking on the Premier League providers after contributing his eighth assist of the season, setting up Phil Foden's opening goal in Manchester City's clash with Brighton on Wednesday. Despite not being renowned for supplying the chances for his teammates, his tally has already seen him surpass Paul Scholes' best-ever haul of assists from his glittering career.
