Kylian Mbappe is the favorite to finish at the top of the Ligue 1 top scorers chart. The Paris Saint-Germain talisman looked set to join La Liga side Real Madrid this summer, but he performed a last-minute U-turn and signed a new deal with PSG instead. That is bad news not only for Madrid, but also for Ligue 1 defenses.
Mbappe is not the only world-class forward at the Parc des Princes. Lionel Messi’s first season with the club was underwhelming but he should improve this time around. And Neymar has something to prove after reports that PSG were open to selling him in the summer.
Wissam Ben Yedder of Monaco has an excellent track record of putting the ball in the back of the net, so do not write him off in this particular race. Lyon’s Moussa Dembele is another one to watch, while the talented Arek Milik could be an outsider after averaging close to a goal every other game during his loan spell at Marseille last time out.
