IFFHS Men’s World Best National Top Division Scorer 2023 at 30 September: Harry Kane

Germán Cano lost his lead in the category of the World’s best national goal-scorers after 5 consecutive months on top. Now he is only 5th.
The new leader is Harry Kane, due to prolific start at Bayern. He added 8 goals in 6 rounds of Bundesliga to 17 scored for Spurs in the first half of the year.
Mauro Icardi from Galatasaray has the same amount (25 goals) but concedes by a tie-breaker (strength of the league, according to IFFHS ranking for leagues).
