Paul Onuachu is experiencing the most prolific season of his career. The Nigerian striker is on fire with Trabzonspor, earning himself a spot among Europe's top 10 goal scorers.

Signed by Trabzonspor from Southampton last summer following a successful loan spell, Paul Onuachu has shown the Süper Lig club's management that their faith in him was well placed.

Despite his team's defeat against Fenerbahçe (2-3) on Saturday night in the 22nd round of the Süper Lig, the 31-year-old striker still found the back of the net.

That was his 16th goal in 19 matches this season, cementing his place in the ranking of the top scorers across European leagues.

Paul Onuachu currently sits eighth in a ranking led by Harry Kane (Bayern Munich, 26 goals) and Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid, 23 goals).

It's also worth noting that Moroccan striker Yanis Begraoui features in the Top 10, occupying tenth place with 15 goals for Estoril in Portugal.

Here is the Top 10:

1. Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) – 26 goals in 22 matches

2. Kylian Mbappé (Real Madrid) – 23 goals in 22 matches
