The 5 best mins-per-goal ratios in Europe: Neymar tops the goalscorer rankings  

The Brazilian and Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino was among the players with the best scoring average in the five major European leagues in the current season 2022/2023. Sports analytics company Opta Sports published a list of the top five players who have played at least 200 minutes with the best minutes per goal involvement in the top 5 European leagues this season. Neymar ranks at the top of the list as the Brazil international has a 41-minute-per-goal involvement for the French giants. However, what might be more impressive is the player the 30-year-old is ahead of this season. Neymar Jr. was followed by the Polish star Robert Lewandowski second, and then Erling Haaland in third place, followed by Firmino fourth, before Real Madrid star Rodrygo finished the list in fifth place.
Below Neymar in second place is FC Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski, who has a 45-minute-per-goal involvement for the La Liga side. In third place is another player off to a great 2022-23 football season start, Manchester City’s Erling Haaland. Haaland has a 48-minute-per-goal involvement for the Premier League side. Rounding out the top five are Liverpool’s Roberto Firmino (57) and Real Madrid’s Rodrygo (58), so there’s a heavy Brazilian presence on the list.
