Two leading members of the attacking ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona have combined to establish themselves as the most productive goalscoring duo in European football thus far this season.
That’s according to Opta, who point towards Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski as the pair in question.
Both wide-man Raphinha and striker Lewandowski are of course in the midst of prolific campaigns to date in 2024/25.
The former has racked up 20 goals from his berth on the left flank, with Lewandowski having chipped in with 26 of his own through the middle.
And such figures make the Blaugrana pair, by some way, the standout combo across Europe’s top-five leagues this term.
As per statisticians Opta, with 46 combined goals, Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski have found the net a full ten times more than the next best pairing, in Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala.
Rounding out the podium on 32 combined goals, meanwhile, are Liverpool pairing Mohamed Salah and Luis Díaz.
