Dortmund’s Serhou Guirassy stands alone at the top as the only player with double digit goals in the Champions League so far. The 28-year-old bagged 10 goals in as many appearances, including the winner against Sporting CP in the knockout phase playoffs to send his side through to the round of 16.
Robert Lewandowski is close behind the Dortmund man with nine goals. The Poland international, along with his Barcelona teammate Raphinha, are the only two players in the top eight that managed their totals without playing a knockout phase playoff tie.
Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé, meanwhile, jumped into the top five thanks to their production in the knockout phase playoffs. Haaland bagged a brace in the first leg against Real Madrid at the Etihad and Mbappé scored four goals across the two legs.
Harry Kane, Vangelis Pavlidis and Vinícius Júnior are the remaining three players with seven Champions League goals to their names. Below them are seven players with six goals each, including Paris Saint-Germain’s Ousmane Dembélé and Atlético Madrid teammates, Julián Alvarez and Antoine Griezmann.
