Alan Shearer has commented on Erling Haaland's new contract, acknowledging the potential threat it poses to his Premier League all-time top goalscorer record. Haaland's consistent goal-scoring form, winning the Premier League Golden Boot for the past two seasons, suggests he could surpass Shearer's 260 goals. If Haaland maintains a 20-goal-per-season average over the next decade, he could achieve this feat before his new contract expires. However, football is unpredictable, and factors like club transfers or injuries could impact his journey.
