Top strikers in the Big Five leagues: Kane with 8 goals and 3 assists in 4 games, Mbappé with 7 goals and 1 assist in 6 games, Haaland with 6 goals in 5 games.

Who are the strongest active forwards in football? At present, in the Big Five leagues, the leading forwards areKane from Bayern, Mbappé from Real Madrid, and Haaland from Manchester City—all three are part of top-tier clubs and have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness this season.

This week, La Liga featured a double match round. In the early hours of September 24 (Beijing time), Real Madrid secured a commanding 4-1 away victory over Levante in the 6th round of La Liga, achieving six consecutive wins and firmly holding the top spot in the league standings. Real Madrid's star player Mbappé has continued his prolific scoring form from last season, starting every match in the first six rounds, scoring 7 goals and providing 1 assist, contributing directly to 8 goals. He ranks second in goal involvement across the Big Five leagues, just behind Bayern's striker Kane.

England’s Kane, who was held back at Tottenham, is dominating the Bundesliga this season. He started all four matches so far, scoring 8 goals and assisting 3 times, creating 11 goals in total. His involvement in goals leads the Big Five leagues, earning him recognition as the top current center forward.

Besides Mbappé and Kane, Haaland is the closest rival among the super forwards. He started all five Premier League matches, scoring 6 goals but without assists. In the Big Five leagues’ goal involvement rankings, Haaland is not third; that spot currently belongs to Levante’s Ayong, with 4 goals and 3 assists.

In my personal view, Mbappé and Kane are the top two forwards in football today. Haaland still needs to improve his performance in crucial matches. This season, Haaland seems to be evolving—keep it up!
