The battle to be the Bundesliga’s top marksman is underway.
Last year, the Kicker-Torjägerkanone trophy was claimed by both Niclas Füllkrug and Christopher Nkunku, who scored 16 goals each for Werder Bremen and RB Leipzig, respectively.
With Füllkrug no longer necessarily a sure starter after a summer move to Borussia Dortmund and Nkunku having left the league for Chelsea, there’s a strong chance that the Bundesliga will see a new player atop the goalscoring charts at season’s end.
England striker Harry Kane may be a favorite after a summer transfer to Bayern Munich, but the notoriously free-scoring Bundesliga will likely produce a long list of contenders to lead the league in goals this time around.
Here is an updated list of the top scorers in the Bundesliga for the 2023-24 season.
