Haaland is only ranked 7th

After two months away from the pitch due to injury, Erling Haaland returned and immediately shone with a double against Everton. The Norwegian striker is leading the Premier League scoring list with 16 goals, two more than the next player, Mohamed Salah.

However, compared to his European peers, Haaland's achievements are quite modest. Currently, the top scorer in the Old Continent is Harry Kane. The former Tottenham star has scored 24 goals for Bayern in the Bundesliga.

However, these numbers will mean nothing if Bayern cannot defend their Bundesliga title this season. Currently, the Bavarian club is 5 points behind Leverkusen.

The race for the 2023/24 European Golden Shoe.

The English, French, German, Spanish and Italian championships will be multiplied by 2, so Kane has 48 points in the race for the 2023/24 European Golden Shoe. Behind Kane are Kylian Mbappe and Lautaro Martinez with 20 goals - 40 points and 19 goals - 38 points respectively.

The names ranked 4th and 5th are players Akor Adams and Amahl Pellegrino. These are two names that are quite unfamiliar to football fans. Adams has 36.5 points, while Pellegrino has 36 points.

This season, Adams scored 15 goals for Lillestrom (coefficient 1.5), then moved to Montpellier and scored 7 goals (coefficient 2). Meanwhile, Pellegrino scored 24 goals for Bodo Club. However, he only got 36 points because the Norwegian league calculates coefficient 1.5.

Ranked 6th on the list is Serhou Guirassy (17 goals with coefficient 2). The Stuttgart striker is being sought after by a series of big clubs, including Man Utd and Arsenal. Erling Haaland is ranked 7th with 16 goals with coefficient 2, equivalent to 32 points. The Norwegian star has regained his best form and fitness and is ready to accelerate in the rest of the 2023/24 season.

Jude Bellingham is the only midfielder to feature in the top 10 scorers in Europe this season. The €100 million Real Madrid star has scored 16 goals in La Liga, equivalent to 32 points.
