How far is Wood off 100 Premier League goals?
[BBC] Some of you have been asking via our Nottingham Forest Ask me Anything form how far Chris Wood is off joining the exclusive 100 Premier League goals club. It is safe to say the Reds striker is well and truly closing in on the milestone, having scored three goals in an injury-ridden season to bring his tally up to 92 in the competition. Since making his Premier League debut for West Brom under Tony Mowbray in 2009 - though he did not score in the top flight for the club - Wood has gone on to play for four other teams in the division.
He netted one league goal during his stint at Leicester City , backing it up with 49 league goals for Burnley , registering four league goals at Newcastle , and he is currently 38 league goals and counting for Nottingham Forest. Wood reached 100 Premier League goal involvements, which included 89 goals and 11 assists, in May 2025 when Nottingham Forest drew 2-2 against East Midlands rivals Leicester . In 2024-25, the 34-year-old also became just the second player to score 20 Premier League goals for the Reds in a single season, following in the footsteps of Stan Collymore, who scored 22 in the 1994-95 campaign.
