Guirassy Leads Champions League Golden Boot Race As Semi-Final Drama Unfolds
Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy has firmly held his spot at the summit of the UEFA Champions League top scorer chart, with 13 goals to his name following the thrilling first-leg semi-final fixtures concluded on Wednesday.
Trailing closely behind him is Barcelona’s Raphinha, who continues to impress with 12 goals, while heavyweights like Harry Kane and Robert Lewandowski follow with 11 goals apiece.
Here’s a look at the current Top Scorers chart:
🔝 13 goals – Serhou Guirassy (Borussia Dortmund)
🔥 12 goals – Raphinha (Barcelona)
🎯 11 goals – Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona)
⚡ 8 goals – Erling Haaland (Man City), Lautaro Martínez (Inter), Ousmane Dembélé (PSG), Vinícius Júnior (Real Madrid)
Opinion: A New Star Takes the Spotlight Amidst Elite Company
While big names like Kane, Haaland, and Lewandowski have dominated headlines for years, Guirassy’s rise as UCL top scorer is both refreshing and inspiring. The Dortmund frontman, not always considered among Europe’s elite strikers, is proving that consistency, determination, and hunger for goals can trump reputation.
As the Champions League heads into its second-leg semi-final battles next week — PSG vs Arsenal in Paris, and Barcelona vs Inter Milan at the iconic San Siro — all eyes will remain on whether Guirassy can finish the job and clinch the coveted Golden Boot.
⚽ Could this be the season a new name etches itself permanently in Champions League folklore?
