Goals Scored - 18

The Polish striker took the Serie A by storm at the start of this season and has continued his fantastic form with his new club AC Milan. He summed up a fruitful first month since making the move, scoring in all of the 4 games in February and inching closer to the men ahead of him.

Piatek started the month with a goal in the 1-1 draw against AS Roma away from home. He followed that up with another goal in the 3-0 win over Cagliari Calcio at home in the next game. In the following game against Atalanta, he scored a brace to seal a vital 3-1 away win for his club. In the game against Empoli at the end of the month, Piatek scored once more to help his club to a 3-1 win.

Against Sassuolo this weekend, the Polish striker drew a blank, but Piatek still has 18 goals from 25 games in the season so far and is averaging a goal every 110 minutes played. He has recorded 73 shots so far, 39 of which have been on target. At the start of March, he is 3rd among the top contenders for the Golden Boot and is hot on the heels of the men ahead.
