Leading League scorers in the top four divisions in England: Akpom only outperformed by Man City's striker

Posted : 19 April 2023
Chuba Akpom, a striker eligible for the Super Eagles, kept up his good record in front of goal as Middlesbrough lost 2-1 to Burnley, a team headed for the Premier League, at the Riverside Stadium on Good Friday.

When he converted a penalty in the 48th minute, the graduate of the Hale End Academy became the first Boro player to score in seven straight games at the Riverside Stadium.

After scoring against Reading, Swansea City, Stoke City, Preston North End, and Huddersfield Town earlier in the season, Akpom has now scored against each of the last six Championship opponents.

That was his 26th goal in thirty-three second-tier games, and it increased his advantage over Coventry City's Viktor Gyökeres at the top of the scoring rankings to eight goals.

Only Erling Haaland of Manchester City, a prolific scorer in the Premier League, Championship, League One, and League Two of English football, has scored more goals than Akpom this year.

At the St. Mary's Stadium on Saturday, Manchester City crushed Southampton 4-1 thanks to a magnificent scissors kick from the Norwegian sensation, who now has 30 goals in the Premier League.

Because of his excellent form, Akpom is one of the most sought-after strikers in England.
