Chris Wood Breaks Two Premier League Records After Nottingham Forest Striker’s Incredible Goal Return

Nottingham Forest's Chris Wood has made history by breaking a few Premier League records after his extreme goal return.

The New Zealand international has scored 15 goals in his first 17 Premier League games for the newly promoted side, surpassing the previous record held by Demba Ba, who scored 13 goals in his first 17 games for Nwcastle United in 2011-12.

Wood's impressive goal return has also seen him break the record for the most goals scored by a New Zealand player in a single Premier League season, surpassing the previous record of nine goals set by Chris Killen for Norwich City in 2005-06.

The 31-year-old striker has been a revelation for Nottingham Forest since joining the club from Newcatle United in January 2023, and his goals have played a key role in helping the club to secure its Premier League status for next season.

Wood's performances have not gone unnoticed, and he has been linked with a move to a number of top-flight clubs, including Manchester United and Chelsea.
