IFFHS WOMEN'S WORLD BEST TOP GOAL SCORER 2022 - THE RANKING at January 31
Georgia Stanway is the first leader of the World's Best Top Goal Scorer ranking 2022 ! She has already scored 8 goals with Manchester City, one more than the stars Samantha Kerr and Lieke Martens, IFFHS World's Best Playmaker 2017. Many countries have not played in January, so it is only a first ranking but it allows typical Goalscorers like Kerr, Wullaert, Cervantes (the 3 were in the World's Top 10 in 2021) to be already present in the Top 10 at the beginning of the year.
