Alan Shearer knows that if he wants to preserve his record as the Premier League's all-time record goalscorer, it would be helpful if Erling Haaland moved away from the English top flight.

The former Newcastle United and England striker scored 260 Premier League goals across his 14 years in the league.

Haaland has netted 120 Premier League goals in four-and-a-bit seasons and should he stay with Manchester City - and City stay in the league - it is feasible the Norwegian could surpass Shearer's tally.
