5. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid)
Appearances: 27
Total league goals: 28
Minutes on pitch: 2377
Goals per 90 minutes: 1.06
Cristiano Ronaldo is the second highest scorer in Europe’s top five leagues this season, with 28 goals in 27 matches, and given that no player takes more shots on goal than the Portuguese superstar, it is unsurprising he is such a goal threat.
The Real Madrid forward strikes the ball superbly well, and is devastatingly effective from both long range and in the penalty area.
Ronaldo has equalled Lionel Messi’s record of 14 goals in a UEFA Champions League campaign in just eight appearances, and if he can recover from his hamstring injury, he could well make the record his own.
