Join us as we explore the answer to the question of which player has scored the most goals in a Premier League season, coming in the form of a certain Norwegian striker who plays in Manchester.
Which Player Has Scored The Most Goals In A Premier League Season?
In his debut Premier League campaign, Erling Haaland scored 36 goals in 33 starts to rewrite the history books and record the most goals ever scored in a Premier League season.
The Norwegian surpassed Mohamed Salah’s record of 32 goals in a 38-game Premier League season before leapfrogging Alan Shearer and Andy Cole, who both managed 34 back when it was a 42-match competition during the 1990s.
According to Premier League betting sites, the Manchester City striker is odds-on at a price of 8/13 to be the top-flight’s leading goalscorer for a second successive year ahead of Harry Kane (7/1) and Salah (8/1).
With 52 goals Haaland also broke the record for most goals in one season in all competitions by a Premier League player, comfortably overtaking Salah (2017/18) and Ruud van Nistelrooy (2002/03) with 44.

Erling Haaland: A Record-Breaking 2022/23 Season
Haaland took the English game by storm, as expected and quickly established himself as one of the best footballers on the planet at the age of just 23. City paid Borussia Dortmund just £52m for his signature, one of the best-value deals in history.
It’s most likely that Haaland will break his own single-season Premier League scoring record in the near future and it’s tough to imagine a new name at the top of that list for quite some time.
