Paul Onuachu Ranks 10th in European Golden Shoe Race

Paul Onuachu, a 31-year-old forward playing for Trabzonspor, has climbed to 10th place in the European Golden Shoe rankings for the 2025/26 season. He has scored 21 league goals and provided two assists in 24 appearances, including 23 starts and 2,059 minutes played in the Turkish Super Lig.

Onuachu's performance has been pivotal for his team's attack, especially during a remarkable run where he scored 10 goals across nine matches, including an impressive streak of scoring in eight consecutive games. His scoring streak was halted in a 1-0 win against Eyüpspor.

Notable contributions include a brace in a 3-1 victory over Kayserispor and two goals in a 3-0 win against Samsunspor. Despite playing in a league with a 1.5 coefficient, Onuachu's consistency has kept him competitive among Europe's elite forwards, currently trailing behind leaders like Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappé, and Erling Haaland.
