Kevin De Bruyne believes Manchester City teammate Erling Haaland can go on and score 800 goals before his career ends.

Haaland has already managed to score 24 goals in just 19 appearances across all competitions since his summer move from Borussia Dortmund.

“He already has about 200 goals, so he can probably go to 600, 700 or 800 if he stays fit and does the things that he does,” said De Bruyne.

“It is very hard to compare because they are all totally different.

“They have all scored 300 or 400 goals. Erling is so obsessed with goals he can maybe go beyond that.

He added: “He is still a young boy enjoying his life and he takes his football very seriously. He loves scoring goals, so I think that is the most unique thing he has.”
