What milestones are next for Aleksandar Mitrovic after surpassing Ivan Toney mark?

Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic broke the Sky Bet Championship record for goals scored in a regular season on Wednesday.

A brace in a 2-1 win over Peterborough took the Serbian’s league tally for the campaign to 33, beating the competition’s previous best of Ivan Toney – who struck 31 times for Brentford last term – and putting him nine behind Guy Whittingham’s second-tier, 46-game record of 42 set in the 1992-93 season.

Here, the PA news agency looks at how far Mitrovic could push his total.

Mitrovic’s 33 goals to date have come in just 30 Championship appearances, with three hat-tricks and a further six two-goal hauls.

Toney only scored his 31st goal of Brentford’s regular season on the final day against Bristol City in what was his 45th appearance. They needed the play-offs to secure their elevation to the Premier League, with Toney adding two more goals in those three games.

Toney’s only hat-trick came against Wycombe, with four doubles as he scored in 25 separate games in all compared to 21 so far for Mitrovic.

Mitrovic has played 2,773 minutes of league football, including stoppage time, having started all but the games against Derby in November and Stoke in January and been substituted on nine occasions, often very late in the game.

Mitrovic is well on course to record the most prolific season in England since the early 1990s and should challenge the 40-goal mark.

In the Premier League, there were 34-goal seasons from Andy Cole for Newcastle in 1993-94 – when Jimmy Quinn also scored 35 for third-tier Reading – and Alan Shearer for Blackburn the
