Kane has exceeded expectations in his first season with Bayern Munich. He leads the list with 53 goal contributions, recording 40 goals and 13 assists in the 2023-24 season.

He leads the Golden Boot race in the Bundesliga, scoring 33 goals in the German top flight this season. He also has created goals for his teammates, dishing out eight assists in the 2023-24 Bundesliga campaign, per the BBC.

Kane also remains on course to win the Champions League Golden Boot award for the first time in his career. He has scored seven goals for Bayern in Europe's biggest club competition, helping the German side reach the semi-finals.

2. Kylian Mbappe (Paris Saint-Germain, 50)

Mbappe is putting on a show in his final season with PSG. He is second on the list with 50 goal contributions, recording 41 goals and nine assists in the 2023-24 campaign.

He leads the Golden Boot race in Ligue 1, scoring 24 goals in the French top flight this season. He also has scored eight goals each in the French Cup and Champions League.

PSG remain alive in all three competitions, meaning Mbappe still has plenty of matches to add to his goal tally.

He is tied with Erling Haaland for first place in the Premier League Golden Boot race, scoring 20 goals in the English top flight this season.

He surged to the top after scoring back-to-back hat-tricks at Stamford Bridge, netting trebles against Manchester United and Everton.

He also scored twice in the EFL Cup and netted one goal each in the FA Cup, Community Shield, and UEFA Super Cup. Palmer was still part of Man City when he scored goals in the Community Shield and Super Cup.

Palmer is not just a scorer but also a goal-creator. This season, he has dished out 13 assists, nine of which he recorded in the Premier League.

Bellingham's goal involvements this season
