Newcastle United legend Alan Shearer has challenged Manchester City star Erling Haaland to break the 60-goal barrier this season.

Haaland stole the show against RB Leipzig in midweek as his five goals helped City to a 7-0 victory in the Champions League.

Those thinking that the Norwegian would slow down in the FA Cup against Burnley were mistaken. Another hat-trick for the 22-year-old moved Haaland onto a whopping 42 goals for the season.

Should he not score between now and the end of the campaign, the striker will have enjoyed a record-breaking season, however, Shearer is pushing for more.
