Sporting star joins Europe’s elite and thrashes Mbappé on stats | OneFootball

Luis Suárez is among the forwards with the greatest attacking impact in Europe’s top 10 leagues during 2026. The Sporting striker ranks 4th in a list compiled based on direct goal involvements, behind Harry Kane, Michael Olise and Lamine Yamal.

At 28, the player — who will not start against Braga — has been one of the main attacking figures at the start of the season. The forward has already recorded seven goals and one assist this season, while the numbers accumulated throughout 2026 show an even greater influence: 31 goal involvements in 34 matches, according to Transfermarkt data.

This record allows the Sporting player to move ahead of Raphinha in the rankings, even though the Brazilian has also posted 31 attacking contributions. The difference lies in the number of games played, as the Barcelona winger reached that mark in just 25 matches.

At the top of the table is Harry Kane, with 42 direct goal involvements. The English striker is followed by teammate Michael Olise and Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal, both with 36 combined goals and assists in 31 matches.

The list also features one notable absence: Kylian Mbappé, despite the French forward being one of Yamal’s main rivals in the race for the Ballon d’Or. Suárez, meanwhile, appears in a prominent position.
