Bournemouth striker Joshua King wants to become the most prolific goalscorer in Norway's history.

The 27-year-old has 16 goals for his country, some way behind Jorgen Juve's record of 33 goals.

King told the Cherries website: "I'm trying to get the record for Norway.

"It's 33 and I'm on 16 now. I'm 27 and have a minimum of four years left in me at international level.

"Every time I go away, I try to do my best for my country and score goals.

"They rely on me to score goals and create chances and I enjoy that pressure."

He added: "My aim is to be the top scorer in Norwegian football history.

"I've been in the national team for seven years and have missed a lot of games.

"I've played 44 games and it probably could have been closer to 60 if I hadn't been injured. If I could get 20 goals in the next three or four years, it would take me to the top of the list and that's what I want."
