At just 24 years old, Haaland’s career tally now stands at 235 club goals across Molde, Red Bull Salzburg, Borussia Dortmund, and City, along with 32 goals for Norway.
His 100th City goal also means he ties Cristiano Ronaldo’s record for the fewest games needed to reach 100 goals for a team in Europe’s top five leagues.
