It is amazing to see just how many of these world records get broken by players at their training grounds. Manchester City's No.1 Ederson joined his club in the Guinness World Records after the end of a record breaking season, in which the Sky Blues had broken three different world records.

The 24-year-old Brazilian successfully attempted to break the longest football drop kick at City's Etihad campus. With a daunting task of beating the previous record of 75 m long drop-kick, he managed to produce an remarkable 75.35 m kick.

It is rare to see any goalkeeper in the record books, with the strikers always headlining the records and stats list.

But with his incredible feat, Ederson joined Petr Cech and Asmir Begovic as the only three Premier League goalkeepers to be featured in the Guinness Book of World Records.
