The records just keep coming for Erling Haaland. The Norwegian striker has now scored more Premier League goals than Didier Drogba, the Chelsea legend who lifted four league titles and terrorised defences for nearly a decade. ⚡️
What makes this landmark truly remarkable is the speed of Haaland’s achievement. Drogba needed 254 Premier League appearances to amass his tally, while Haaland has surpassed it in just over two seasons since arriving at Manchester City.
Didier Drogba: 104 Premier League goals (254 games)
Erling Haaland: 105+ goals (under 90 games)
The contrast highlights Haaland’s extraordinary strike rate, one of the most prolific in the history of the competition.
For Haaland: Cementing his status as not just a Manchester City phenomenon, but already a Premier League legend.
For the Premier League: The comparison with Drogba underscores how generational Haaland is — rewriting records once thought untouchable.
For the Market: Every milestone boosts Haaland’s global profile, from shirt sales to commercial partnerships, making him arguably the most marketable striker in world football right now.
At just 25, Haaland is on track to chase down the all-time Premier League goal-scoring records, with Alan Shearer’s 260 goals already in sight if he maintains his incredible pace.
The message is clear: Erling Haaland is not just breaking records — he’s redefining them.
