The World’s Best National Top Division Scorer 2021 at September 30:
Onuachu tries to catch up Lewandowski
Robert Lewandowski has added only 2 league goals in September. His lead (with 31 goals) in this category is still quite confident, but now the Pole has a dangerous contender, the Nigerian Paul Onuachu who has scored 7 goals over past month in Belgian league for Genk. He was the best national goal-scorer in September.
With 27 league goals currently produced in 2021 and such a good tempo, Onuachu (picture) is able to compete with Lewandowski for the award.
Another Nigerian Ifedayo Olusegun who netted 26 goals in Malaysian league has also some chances.
