The race for Europe's top scorer title is heating up, and this week's rankings bring some major shake-ups. Kylian Mbappé, sidelined against FC Barcelona, has officially dropped out of the top three. His absence proved costly as Erling Haaland delivered a goal and an assist against Brentford, pushing the Manchester City star firmly onto the podium.
Meanwhile, Stade Rennais forward Estéban Lepaul continues his remarkable rise. With another goal against Paris FC, he's locked in a top-10 spot and is proving to be one of the season's breakout stars.
Here's a look at the current top 20 scorers (goals + assists) across Europe's five major leagues for the 2025-26 season. Rankings are based on total points, with ties broken by the player who has a smaller difference between goals and assistsâfavoring more well-rounded performers.
