Erling Haaland's dad has already explained why he won't become Premier League top scorer

Alfe-Inge Haaland has explained that his son Erling might not be in England for long enough to become the all-time Premier League top scorer.

The Norwegian has enjoyed a stunning start to life with Manchester City following his summer arrival from Borussia Dortmund. He already has 14 Premier League goals to his name, having broken the record for the lowest number of games (eight) to reach three hat-tricks.

Haaland’s stunning form has led to suggestions that he could potentially even challenge Alan Shearer for his all-time goalscorers record. Despite still having 246 goals to go to match the former Newcastle United man, former striker Michael Owen can’t see a reason why the 22-year-old cannot reach those levels.
