‘I Would Swap All My Goals For Three Trophies’ – Erling Haaland

‘I Would Swap All My Goals For Three Trophies’ – Erling Haaland

Record-breaker striker Erling Braut Haaland has stated that he would swap all of his goals for Manchester City this season in exchange for winning the treble.

The 22-year-old’s incredible debut season with the Citizens will go down in Premier League history as the first player to score 35 goals in a single season.

In the 70th minute of Man City’s 3-0 home win over West Ham United on Wednesday night, Haaland received a pass from Jack Grealish and ran through on goal before chipping Lukasz Fabianksi inside the penalty area.

Pep Guardiola’s side returned to the top of the Premier League table, one point ahead of title rivals Arsenal with a game in hand, thanks to second-half goals from Nathan Ake and Phil Foden.

Haaland has 35 Premier League goals in 31 games this season, breaking the previous record of 34 held by both Andy Cole and Alan Shearer, and he has also increased his overall goal tally in all competitions to 51 in 44 appearances.

Along with 35 Premier League goals, Haaland has 12 goals in eight Champions League games this season, with City preparing for a semi-final match against Real Madrid, and he has three goals in three FA Cup matches en route to next month’s final against rivals Manchester United.

When asked by Sky Sports if he would swap all his goals and records in order to win the treble, Haaland firmly said, “Yes.”

Haaland added: “Everyone knows [the treble] is possible but we cannot think of the FA Cup final with Manchester United now [or the Champions League], we have Leeds in three days.

When Manchester City hosts Sam Allardyce’s Leeds United on Saturday afternoon, Haaland will look to add to his remarkable goal tally.
