Premier League 100 club: Raheem Sterling joins elite group as Mohamed Salah climbs again

Sports Mole looks at the latest standings in the Premier League 100 club after Raheem Sterling became only the 32nd person to reach a century in the competition.

Raheem Sterling became the 32nd player to notch up 100 Premier League goals courtesy of his winner for Manchester City against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.

The winger scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot to reach the century milestone, becoming the third player this season to enter the exclusive club.

Another of those to have done so this year - Mohamed Salah - is already up to 111 courtesy of his goal against Aston Villa, like Sterling netting the only goal of the game from the penalty spot.

Salah's strike puts him level with Dion Dublin on the all-time list, now just two goals behind Arsenal legend Ian Wright in the standings.

Here, Sports Mole looks at the latest situation in the 100 club following the goals from Sterling and Salah today.
