The Premier League and iconic strikers go hand in hand. Thierry Henry. Alan Shearer. Ruud van Nistelrooy. The list goes on and on.

There’s no shortage of lethal goalscorers in England’s top flight right now, either.

So, shall we rank the Premier League’s top ten forwards on current form? Let’s get into 90min’s placings…

Following a rather poor stint at Juventus, not many people expected Dejan Kulusevski to star in the Premier League.

And yet, he has.

Kulu has managed to bag himself nine goal contributions since his January move to Tottenham and looks right at home in north London.

After a lot of internal canvassing at 90min HQ (mainly by Graeme Bailey), Phil Foden has finally cemented his place on this list.

And he has because, well, he’s been brilliant in 2022.

It didn’t take too long for Luis Diaz to get his name on this list, did it?

The Liverpool man has been outstanding since moving to the Premier League in January.

11 goals in 13 starts.
Second best minutes per goal in the Premier League.

The stats speak for themselves, Riyad Mahrez is absolutely fantastic.

It’s taken a while, but Chelsea are finally getting some consistent goal returns from Kai Havertz.

With Romelu Lukaku out of form and favour with Thomas Tuchel, the Blues have needed goals from other players and the Germany international has stepped up.

Liverpool knew they were getting an excellent player when they brought in Diogo Jota from Wolves last season, but did they think he’d be this good?

Probably not. Jota has already bettered his league goal tally from last season this time around and will most likely add a bucketload to the 15 strikes he’s rattled in so far.

11 league goals last season was a bit of a disappointing return for Sadio Mane, which shows just how far he’s progressed at Anfield in recent years.

He looks back to his best this season, however, having already bagged 14 Premier League goals and winning the Africa Cup of Nations. Nice one.

At the start of the season when it looked like Harry Kane could be on his way out of north London, Son Heung-min stepped up to become Tottenham’s leading light.

With excellent returns across the last six seasons, the South Korean is one of the Premier League’s most reliable forwards.

A tumultuous summer didn’t seem to have done much for Kane’s goalscoring form this season.

And then he went and put in a career-best performance against Manchester City. Then he followed that up with starring roles against Leeds, Everton, West Ham, Brighton and Newcastle. He finally looks back to his best in 2022.

There can’t be any debates about top spot here, right? Mohamed Salah has been truly incredible since joining Liverpool from Roma in 2017, putting up terrifying numbers year after year, and he seems to only be getting better.

The Egyptian can score all types of goals and is the star attraction in an excellent Reds side. Right now, there’s nobody in the Premier League who can touch him.
