Bundesliga top scorers race!

1) Harry Kane 
Club: Bayern Munich
Goals: 17
Appearances: 13

Bayern's razor-sharp No.9 struck 26 times for the record champions last season, adding to his debut campaign haul of 36. In fact, it's now 79 goals in 76 Bundesliga games and counting for the 2024/25 Player of the Season!

Ex-Bayern and Borussia Dortmund forward Robert Lewandowski holds the Bundesliga's single-season goals record (41, 2020/21) and to date is the only player to claim three or more successive Torjägerkanonen outright - but for how long? 

Kane's hat-trick against Stuttgart on Matchday 13 took his tally to 17 for the season, and many more are likely to come between now and the end of the campaign.

2) Jonathan Burkardt
Club: Eintracht Frankfurt
Goals: 8
Appearances: 10

A summer signing from Mainz, Burkardt ended the 2024/25 campaign as the Bundesliga's top-scoring German player and has picked up where he left off at his new club this term. After opening his account with a double against Galatasaray in the Champions League, the 25-year-old netted in back-to-back games against Union and Gladbach before scoring another brace at Freiburg on Matchday 7.

Further doubles against St. Pauli on Matchday 8 and Cologne on Matchday 11 further underlined his goalscoring ability. He is yet to score a senior hat-trick, but in this form, you wouldn't be against him doing just that this campaign.

3) Haris Tabaković
Club: Borussia Mönchengladbach
Goals: 7
Appearances: 12

Signed on loan from fellow Bundesliga side Hoffenheim, the Switzerland-born Bosnia and Herzegovina international has already surpassed his tally of three goals in 22 Bundesliga appearances for the Sinsheim club last season.

With Tim Kleindienst now back from injury but still working his way back to full fitness, Tabaković is providing cover and competition for the Gladbach talisman and will take some moving from the team on this form when Kleindienst does return.

Tabaković scored in three consecutive games between Matchdays 9 and 11, but fired blanks in Matchdays 12 and 13.

= 3) Luis Díaz
Club: Bayern Munich
Goals: 7
Appearances: 13

The Colombian attacker has been an extra bright spark in Bayern's dazzling array of attacking talents since signing from Liverpool in the summer.

Seven goals in his opening 13 appearances - including a tremendous effort against Union Berlin - shows he has the output to match the hype. His late effort against St. Pauli on Matchday 12 was crucial, too, as Bayern were on their way to dropping two points.

= 3) Deniz Undav
Club: VfB Stuttgart
Goals: 7
Appearances: 9

He missed four of the first six league games of the season with knee ligament damage, but Undav appears eager to make up for lost time.

After opening his account for the campaign in a 2-1 win over Mainz on Matchday 8, the Germany international scored twice in victory over Augsburg before netting a superb hat-trick in Stuttgart's breathless 3-3 draw at Borussia Dortmund on Matchday 11. He followed that up as a substitute against Hamburg, making it seven goals in his last six league games, after firing blanks against Bayern on Matchday 13.

= 6) Michael Olise
Club: Bayern Munich
Goals: 6
Appearances: 13

Last season's top assist provider, Olise enjoyed a jaw-dropping 27 goal involvements in his very first campaign in the Bundesliga.

The French wizard wasted no time in showing he fancied beating that tally in 2025/26 with a double against Leipzig as Germany's top division got underway, while his two goals against Freiburg on Matchday 11 helped the Bavarians secure a comprehensive come-from behind victory.

= 6) Christoph Baumgartner
Club: RB Leipzig
Goals: 6
Appearances: 13

Austria international Baumgartner only scored twice in 31 Bundesliga appearances last season but has already more than doubled that tally this term after hitting a purple patch in October. The midfielder, who opened his account for the campaign at home to Heidenheim on Matchday 2, scored in Leipzig's 1-1 draw at Dortmund last month before netting both goals in a 2-1 win over Hamburg on Matchday 7.

He followed that up with a goal in the 6-0 demolition of Augsburg on Matchday 8. Baumgartner's record for a Bundesliga campaign is seven strikes, and although he didn't net in Leipzig's Matchday 11 win over Bremen, it may well be only a matter of time before he surpasses that, especially after netting in Leipzig's 6-0 demolition job of Frankfurt on Matchday 13.

= 6) Said El Mala
Club: Cologne
Goals: 6
Appearances: 13

El Mala had never played a Bundesliga game before this campaign, but the 19-year-old has hit the ground running. He netted on Matchday 2, a stunner versus Freiburg, and has not looked back since. His electric form earned him a Germany call-up for the November internationals and, although he didn't get onto the pitch, some more goals will only boost his outside chances of a place in the squad for next year's FIFA World Cup.

= 6) Yan Diomande
Club: RB Leipzig
Goals: 6
Appearances: 13

Having only turned 19 in November, Diomande burst into life towards the end of October and has been electric ever since. He scored against Augsburg on Matchday 8 - only his fourth Bundesliga start - before finding the back of the net five times in the next five matches.

That vein of form included an impressive hat-trick against Frankfurt on Matchday 13. The Ivory Coast teenager seems to have already got to grips with the Bundesliga - it is scary to think what he could as he settles in more and more.
