The Race Between The 2019 Top Strikers

5 - Carlos Vela (38 goals in 2019): the 30-year-old Mexican striker currently plays for the MLS team Los Angeles FC. The completion of the 2019 MLS season will play against Vela being able to continue contending for the title of top scorer. Probably, he could even be surpassed by other players.

4 - Germán Cano (44 goals in 2019): This Argentine scorer plays for the Colombian Independiente de Medellín. With 31 years old, he has been a great revelation for his team. The Independent acquired him for free in January 2018 since he had no contract. Currently, he's valued at more than 3 million Euros according to the sofascore.com portal.

3 - Lionel Messi (46 goals in 2019): This list could not miss the great Argentine idol. Despite missing the first games of the current LaLiga season with Barcelona FC, he recovered his pace quickly. In fact, he keeps his team fighting for the leadership of the Spanish league with an average of one goal every 68 minutes.

2 - Robert Lewandowski (47 goals in 2019): The Polish striker has had an impressive Bundesliga start. With 16 goals in 11 games, he exhibits an extraordinary average of one goal every 60 minutes! The eared 31-year-old attacker is on fire and is a real threat to any defense.

1 - Abderazak Hamdallah (50 goals in 2019): The leader of this list is not a renowned player like Cristiano or Messi. This is a 28-year-old Moroccan striker who plays for Al-Nassr of Saudi Arabia. In the current season of the Saudi Professional League, he has an average of one goal every 100 minutes. Additionally, he has a great ability to define, position himself on the court, and score penalties.

The Top 2019 Strikers Award

The 2019 top striker will be awarded as the World's Top Goal Scorer of the Year. The International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) concedes this award since 1991. The IFFHS considers the goals scored in local and international competitions plus those achieved with the respective national team.

The player who has won the top scorer title more times is Cristiano Ronaldo, 4 times, all of them while playing for Real Madrid C.F. Currently, Cristiano has a role mostly focused on assisting his teammates more than to be a striker with Juventus.
