– In all but one club competition he has played in this season, Haaland has scored more than a goal per game. The German Cup is the only competition he has failed to do so, although even in that he scored once in a 44-minute appearance off the bench.
– Haaland has scored 10+ goals in three different competitions this season (Austrian Bundesliga, Champions League, German Bundesliga).
– Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane are the only other players to score 10 goals in their first season in the Champions League.
– He is the first teenager to score 10 Champions League goals in a single campaign. Kylian Mbappe is the only other teenager to reach that figure but the Frenchman did it over two seasons.
– Haaland’s 10 Champions League goals in seven games makes him the quickest player to reach double figures in the competition’s history.
– He is the first Dortmund player ever to score on his debut in the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and the Champions League.

– In his club career, Haaland has already scored 62 goals in 105 games and has eight hat-tricks to his name.
– A bonus stat for you: Haaland still holds the world record for the longest standing long jump for a five-year-old. An impressive 1.63m, set in 2006, if you were interested.
