After witnessing 11 Gameweeks of high-octane soccer, we can safely predict that the 2024-25 Premier League season will be one of the most memorable in recent years.

Liverpool and Manchester City are currently the top two contenders for the title Premier League title. Chelsea, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, Brighton & Hove Albion, Fulham, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Tottenham Hotspur, and Brentford are all in the mix for the top four. Then, we have Manchester United in the 13th place, gearing up for a comeback under new manager Ruben Amorim. And finally, Ipswich Town, Crystal Palace, Wolverhampton Wanderers, and Southampton are locked in a relegation scrap.

Considering the breakneck action we have been treated to, it is difficult to imagine two whole weeks without English top-flight matches. Unfortunately, the international break is unavoidable, so all we can do is reflect on the story so far. In today’s list, we will get the ball rolling by identifying the division’s most impactful forwards this season.

Here are the five leading goal contributors of the 2024-25 Premier League campaign:
