The last days of the year are fading but there are still contests ahead. In a very tight dispute, four magnificent strikers will seek to establish themselves as the top scorers in 2023. And in this bid, some have more chances than others.
This year’s scoring chart is led by Harry Kane with 51 goals, although the Englishman only has one game left to take advantage. On Wednesday, when Wolfsburg finishes against Bayern Munich, it will be known how many goals the former Tottenham player closed the cycle with.
The time is different for the bodyguards who march in a crouching position. Cristiano Ronaldo, with 50 goals, has three games ahead of him since Al Nassr will play with Al Ettifaq this Friday and, after Christmas, he will face the very tough Al Ittihad to close with Al Taawon.
Mbappé only has one game left to finish the year and he is the one who has it the most complicated while Erling Haaland, with the same amount of celebrations as Cristiano Ronaldo, will possibly play two Club World Cup games plus two Premier League dates.
Unlike the rest, Haaland has a greater advantage since if his health allows him, he will have 360 minutes on the court compared to the 90 of Kane and Mbappé or the 270 of Cristiano Ronaldo. However, anything can happen at this time of balance sheets and the end of the year.
Harry Kane (51) – He only has 1 game left, this Wednesday, against Wolfsburg
Cristiano Ronaldo (50) – They have three games ahead: Friday against Al Ettifaq, Tuesday the 26th with Al Ittihad, and Saturday the 30th with Al Taawon.
Erling Haaland (50) – The great candidate because he could play 4 games in the next 12 days. A priori, this Tuesday with Urawa Reds and, if they beat the Japanese, then the final of the Club World Cup. Upon returning from Saudi Arabia, he has Everton left on December 27 and Sheffield United on the 30th.
Kylian Mbappé (50) – The one with the least chance but who still hasn’t gotten out of the fight. He is one goal behind Kane and only has Wednesday’s game against Metz ahead of him.
