Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is currently in the form of his life and just can't stop scoring.

After netting a hattrick in midweek against RB Leipzig in their 7-0 win over Manchester City, the 22-year-old now has registered another treble following a blistering 6-0 display against Burnley in FA Cup. Haaland scored a first-half brace and completed his hat-trick in the 59th minute on a wet evening in the northwest tie.

Erling Haaland now has taken his season’s tally to 42 and now just needs three goals to surpass Mohamed Salah and Ruud van Nistelrooy’s Premier League era record of 44 goals in all competitions. This is his sixth hat trick of the season and overall 18th hattricks in his career. At just 22 years of age, it's astounding to believe where he will stop if his goal-scoring streak continues in a similar fashion.

But as of now, where does the former Borussia Dortmund and RB Salzburg striker stand in terms of the total number of hattricks so far in his career? Here we have compared his records with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, etc who lead the way when it comes to trebles.

One of the best goal scorers of all-time Cristiano Ronaldo leads this table with the maximum number of hattricks - 62. His most two recent hattricks were for Al Nassr in the 4-0 win over Al Wehda and the 3-0 win over Damac just last month. Other than that he has 44 hattricks for Real Madrid, three hattricks each for Manchester United and Juventus, and a further 10 treble for Portugal.

His arch-rival Lionel Messi is just behind him with 56 career hattricks so far. Messi has recorded 46 hattricks with Barceona while two came for PSG and the rest with the Argentine national side. Robert Lewandowski and Luis Suarez are just behind them in order with 29 hattricks. Haaland just at the start of his career is already just behind them in the list with 18 hattricks. Former Germany striker Mario Gomez and Argentina attacker Sergio Aguero also have the same number of hattricks. PSG sensation Kylian Mbappe meanwhile is 10th in this list with 14 career hattricks so far.
