As is customary at Fichajes.com, we start the week with the classification of the best scorers in the king sport in the Old Continent. For now, Ciro Immobile is the top scorer in Europe, as he is leading Lazio in that statistical facet to sign a more than remarkable season in Serie A. He will be left with the feeling at the collective level due to his early elimination in the Europa League, although the main objective of Simone Inzaghi's troops will be to advance to the 2020-2021 Champions League.
A closely follows Robert Lewandowski, who has slightly reduced his average at Bayern Munich, although it is true that maintaining the goal-scoring pace he had set during the start of the campaign was practically a chimera. The podium is completed by the great hope of the offensive sector of the German national team, a Timo Werner (RB Leipzig) who has been linked with Atletico Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea, or Real Madrid. And what can be said about Jamie Vardy, who, despite the unexpected defeat from the last matchday in the Premier League, continues to be a true reference for Leicester City.
We must not ignore the magnificent season that Junior Moraes is having at Shakhtar Donetsk, although just behind him is considered by the vast majority of experts as the best killer of all time: Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus Turin). To which we must add the presence in this prestigious list of Wissam Ben Yedder (AS Monaco), another former Sevilla player, Romelu Lukaku (Inter Milan), Dieumerci Mbokani (Antwerp), and Danny Ings (Southampton).
