Kaio Jorge jokes about top scorer race with Arrascaeta, stats here

Cruzeiro also dreams of surpassing Flamengo and winning the Brasileirão

Since the beginning of the Brasileirão, Arrascaeta and Kaio Jorge have been competing for the top scorer of the championship. At this moment, the Cruzeiro forward is in first place, being ‘chased’ by the Uruguayan. The player from the Minas Gerais team even joked about the duel with the number 10 of Flamengo.

Arrascaeta is ‘on fire’, right (laughs). But I am quite calm about it. It's a process, and I really want to try to be a champion, to tell you the truth. But we go game by game, day by day, and every opportunity I have, I take as if it were the last -, said Kaio Jorge, after Cruzeiro's victory over Corinthians, this Sunday (23).

At the moment, Kaio Jorge is the top scorer of the Brazilian Championship, with 21 goals scored. It is worth noting that the player scored twice this Sunday (23), in the 3-0 victory over Corinthians. Right after, in second place, Arrascaeta appears with 18 goals.
