Mbappé, Neymar Jr, Messi: goalscoring and assists update
With 18 Ligue 1 games played, we take a look at how our attacking trio are faring in the scoring charts.
With the win over Angers and Lens drawing on Matchday 18, Paris Saint-Germain are now six points clear at the top of the table, and our forwards are also leading the way individually.
He didn't play against Angers, but Kylian Mbappé is still the French top-flight's leading scorer (13). He's also head of the UEFA Champions League goalscorers too (7).
Leo Messi made his return to club football versus Angers following Argentina's World Cup win. His goal took him to eight in Ligue 1, and while he closes on the top of the goalscoring chart, his 10 assists mean he Neymar Jr have no peers in France.
Involved in 21 goals in 16 matches in Rouge-et-Bleu this season, the Brazilian has the most goal involvements of any player in the league.
And a word for Hugo Ekitike! Our 20-year-old forward has taken advantage of his game time by opening the scoring against Angers, and has five goal involvements - three goals, two assists - in his last five Ligue 1 matches.
