In the 2023/24 season, two titans of world football, Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland, are leaving their mark in an impressive way.

The fight for this prestigious award has taken on an epic dimension, as both forwards prove to be undisputed masters of goals.
In the French league standings, Mbappé's PSG is at the top as the lone leader, evidencing the team's dominance in the local competition. On the other hand, Manchester City, Haaland's team, is positioned in third place in the Premier League. Although slightly behind, the citizens are still a formidable contender. Both teams have sealed their place in the round of 16 of the UCL, consolidating their status as serious contenders for the continental title.
