#3 Ciro Immobile (26 goals, S. S. Lazio)
A surprise inclusion in this list, the Italian striker is playing the best football of his career. At 27 years of age, the former Borussia Dortmund attacker is currently tied with Edinson Cavani and Harry Kane at first place in the race for European Golden Shoe Award 2017/18, having scored 20 goals in just 18 league matches.

His ability to finish with both feet and his aerial prowess are what make him such a lethal goal scorer. Playing for Lazio in Serie A, Immobile has scored 26 goals so far this season, adding two each from the Europa League, the Coppa Italia, the Supercoppa Italiana to his impressive league tally.
Lazio finished on top of Group K in the Europa League and are expected to go far in the competition. They are also still alive in the Coppa Italia and fighting for a top four finish in the Serie A. The stage is set for the Italian to break the 50 goals barrier for the first time in his career.
