The race to be top goalscorer in Europe this season

According to UEFA.com, factoring in goals scored in the Champions League and Europa League, Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland leads the chart with 10 to his name. Crucially, however, the Norway international is no longer involved in European competition and, as a result, his lead is there for the taking, with a number of contenders within close proximity.

Fernandes is second with nine goals, split between four in the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain, Istanbul Basaksehir (2) and RB Leipzig, plus five in the Europa League versus Real Sociedad (2), Granada and Roma (2).

Academy graduate Rashford is joint-third in UEFA’s chart with eight goals (alongside French superstar Kylian Mbappe) and his tally includes six in the Champions League against PSG (2), RB Leipzig (3) and Basaksehir, plus two in the Europa League versus Real Sociedad and Granada.
