#3 Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich/Germany): 62 (51 goals + 11 assists)
Robert Lewandowski's 12 Bundesliga goals since the turn of the year as Bayern Munich won their 7th-straight top-flight title was a glimpse of what was to come as the 2018-19 season drew to a close.
The prolific marksman started the new Bundesliga season with a record-scoring streak of 11 games, en route to 16 goals in 12 games, as he remains on course to level Gerd Muller's 1971-72 record of 40 Bundesliga goals in a season.
Having scored his third career Euro Qualifying hat-trick in Poland's 3-0 Euro 2020 qualifying win away in Latvia as Poland sealed qualification for the quadrennial tournament next summer, Lewandowski turned his attention to the Champions League.
One of 3 players to score in each of the first 4 matchdays of this season's competition as Bayern Munich sealed their berth in the Round of 16 with 2 games to spare, the Poland international scored the quickest-ever quadruple in Champions League history as Bayern crushed Crvena Zvezda 6-0 in Belgrade to seal top spot in the group in some style.
With 51 goals and 11 assists in 53 games for club and country, Lewandowski is one of the leading contenders for the 2019 Ballon d'Or.
