UCL: Kane surpasses Osimhen, Haaland as Mbappe leads highest goalscorers’ chart

Harry Kane has moved ahead of Victor Osimhen and Erling Haaland in the UEFA Champions League goals chart following an impressive display for Bayern Munich. The England striker scored twice as Bayern secured a 2-0 victory over Union Saint-Gilloise on Wednesday, boosting his tally in the competition this season.

Before the match, Kane was on five goals, trailing Osimhen and Haaland, who both had six. His brace took him to seven goals, pushing him above the Nigerian and Norwegian stars. The performance further underlined Kane’s importance to Bayern as they continue their push in Europe’s elite competition.

Despite Kane’s rise, the overall top spot on the scorers’ chart is still firmly held by Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé. The French star has been in devastating form, already scoring 11 goals in the Champions League this season, making him the clear leader among Europe’s top attackers.

With several knockout games still to be played, the race for the Golden Boot remains wide open. Kane’s surge adds more competition to the list, while Osimhen and Haaland will be eager to respond as their teams fight for progress in the tournament.
