Jeffrey Schlupp nets 21st Premier League goal, goes 3rd in Ghana's all-time top scorers in competition

Crystal Palace midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp moved joint-third in Ghana's all-time top scorers in the Premier League following his goal on Saturday.

Schlupp scored the opening game in Palace's league game against Burnley away from home on Saturday after a nice link-up with Jordan Ayew.

Ayew robbed a Burnley defender of the ball in the final third of the pitch before racing into the box and setting up Schlupp for the goal that put Palace ahead.

The goal against Burnley means Schlupp has now netted 21 times in the English top flight, playing for Leicester City and Palace.

The 21 goals make him the joint-third Ghanaian with the most goals in the Premier League alongside Andre Ayew.

He is also behind Jordan Ayew (34) goals and Anthony Yeboah (24) on the list.
