2023 is giving a big surprise regarding the footballer with the most goals so far this year. Kylian Mbappe, Messi and Erling Haaland are not the players who currently have the most goals in the main leagues, or rather, in all competitions. He is a forward who plays in Brazilian soccer. However, he is Argentine and is already a veteran in his position.

 

At the height of the elite. The player with a past in the Liga MX, German Cano, is close to the elite of scorers, since he is above Erling Haaland in scoring so far in 2023. German Cano is a forward who currently plays for Fluminense and has had important goals in the South American league, as well as in the Copa Libertadores with his current team.

These two players are also joined by Hugo Cuypers (Gent forward), who has also scored 31 goals in 2023. Below them, there are players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Bernabé Varga with 30 goals, Leo Messi with 25, Santiago Giménez with 22 and Julián Quiñones with 21. In short, these are players who stand out in their leagues, but with little press, they are having numbers like the most important players in Europe.

 

How many goals does German Cano have?

Among all the competitions he has competed in, the Argentine has already scored 33 goals so far this year, and is the top scorer in the world in 2023, thus surpassing world leaders. To take dimension: Lionel Messi scored 24 times this year between the Argentine National Team, Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Miami; Kylian Mbappé reached 17 conquests with France and PSG; and Erling Haaland has found the net 25 times since January 1 with Norway and Manchester City. German Cano is one of the pleasant surprises of the year and will possibly continue scoring for a team.
