Kane has proven over the years to be one of the best in Europe and although he has struggled a bit this season, he is still often among the goals.

The 25-year-old also has three assists to his name, making him one of the all-round strikers you could come across.

#5 Kylian Mbappe (13 goals – 26 points)

Kylian Mbappe is in the mix to scoop the European Golden Shoe award

Joining Harry Kane on 13 league goals is Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappe. The young Frenchman has been in sensational form since the season began, also having a wonderful World Cup.

Mbappe was Europe’s top scorer as of last month with a staggering 11 goals, however, he has dropped to fifth after managing just two goals all through the month of December.

Currently, the former Monaco star is the top scorer in Ligue 1 with 13 goals, but he could have had more if not for the postponement of some league games in the French topflight over protests and unrest in the country.
