PL Players with the MOST Goals in the Champions League This Season
The 2025-26 Champions League has become a stage on which Premier League stars are shining brightest. With five of England’s six entrants sailing directly into the top-eight knockout bracket and Newcastle United muscling past Qarabag 9-3 on aggregate in the playoffs, English clubs have supplied the competition’s most prolific scorers. Here are the players leading the charge.
Anthony Gordon, Newcastle United No Premier League player has hit the net more often than Gordon, whose ten goals in ten European fixtures have propelled Newcastle into the last 16. Four of those arrived in a single virtuoso display during the first leg of the playoff against Qarabag, underlining a continental form that stands in stark contrast to his domestic drought.
Erling Haaland, Manchester City The Norwegian striker has continued his relentless scoring rhythm, registering seven goals in eight Champions League appearances. Only three players across the entire tournament have bettered that tally, reaffirming Haaland’s status among Europe’s elite marksmen.
Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal While the Brazilian’s Premier League account shows a solitary strike, Martinelli has been electric in Europe, notching six goals in seven games—one of the competition’s most efficient returns and a better ratio than the likes of Julian Alvarez, Lautaro Martínez and Marcus Rashford.
Harvey Barnes, Newcastle United Barnes has used Newcastle’s extended European run to his advantage, scoring five times and assisting three across ten matches. The former Leicester winger has been a constant threat down the left, offering a cutting edge that has occasionally deserted him on domestic duty.
Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool Deployed variously as a central midfielder and, on one occasion, an emergency right-back, Szoboszlai has still managed four goals and four assists in eight games. He registered a goal contribution in seven of those fixtures, illustrating his influence on Liverpool’s European progress.
With the knockout phase looming, these Premier League protagonists will hope to maintain their continental hot streaks and, in some cases, import that confidence back into domestic competition.
