Erling Haaland will continue scoring goals in the Premier League for another nine and a half years after the Norwegian signed a new contract that will remain at Manchester City until the summer of 2034.
Haaland has scored 79 goals in 83 league starts for City since joining from Borussia Dortmund in 2022 and is committed to the team until he is 34.
He is 181 goals behind Alan Shearer’s record.
He said: “I’m really happy to have signed my new contract and look forward to spending even more time at this great club.”

“Manchester City is a special club full of fantastic people with great fans and it’s the kind of environment that helps bring out the best in everyone.
“I would also like to thank Pep Guardiola, his coaching staff, my teammates and everyone at the club who have all helped me so much over the last few years. They made this a special place and now I’m town no matter what.
“I want to continue to develop, keep working to get better and do my best to help us be even more successful in the future.”
Haaland has won the Golden Boot in each of his two full seasons in England so far and has 16 this season – two behind Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
City’s director of football, Txiki Begiristain, added: “The fact that he has been under contract for so long shows our commitment to him as a player and his love for this club.”
“He has already made an incredible impact in his time here and his amazing numbers and records speak for themselves.”
City are sixth in the table and face Ipswich on Sunday.
