Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala have been among the highest-scoring and best attacking duos in Europe’s top leagues since last season.
The pair have been prolific for Bayern Munich, recording triple-digit goals for the Bavarians.
Note that an overlooked factor that sometimes contributes to the level of output an attacker is who they are paired with upfront.
It is quite common to see an underperforming forward explode with goals, once he’s paired with an attacker that understands him.
A number of mutually befitting partnerships upfront have been seen in football. The likes of Ronaldo and Rooney, Sturridge and Suarez and Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez comes to mind on this regard.
In this article, we will look at the best attacking duos with the most goals in Europe’s top football clubs since the 2023-24 season.
Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala
Harry Kane has formed a devastating partnership with Jamal Musiala since moving to Bayern Munich last summer.
The duo have scored 61 goals out of their club tally of 126 between them since last season, contributing to a total of 49% of goals scored by their team.
Edon Zhegrova and Jonathan David
Zhergova and David have formed a deadly duo for LOSC Lille. The attacking duo strikes fear into the hearts of Ligue 1 defenders.
Bruno Genesiso’s side has been highly dependent on the attacking capability of the two players. Their total tally of 46 out of their team’s 93 goals can bear testament to that statement. The duo have scored 49% of their team total.
Lois Openda and Benjamin Sesko
Sesko’s glittering partnership with Lois Openda might be the reason the Slovenian opted to remain in Germany with RB Leipzig rather than move to Arsenal.
The pair enjoy playing with each other and have been key to Marco Rose’s side’s current third-place ranking in the Bundesliga.
They have scored 46 goals among themselves since last season, and have contributed to 53% of their team’s 87 goals.
Deniz Undav and Serhou Guirassy
Serhou Guirassy was an influential figure for Vfb Stuttgart last season. The Guinea international formed a devastating partnership with German Deniz Undav.
The duo complimented each other upfront and linked up so well. Their partnership was so devastating that they could boast 44 goals between them despite playing together for one season. They scored 48% of their team’s 91 goals last season.
Javier Puado and Martin Braithwaite
The reliance of Espanyol on the duo can not be overstated. Puado and Braithwaite bailed the Spanish club several times last season. Of the 60 goals scored by the club, the duo contributed to 36, measuring 60% of the team’s overall goal count.
Eberechi Eze and Jean-Phillip Mateta
Eberechi Eze and Jean-Philip Mateta also constituted a deadly attacking duo in Europe’s top leagues. Playing for Crystal Palace, they have more often than not bailed their team out of tricky situations. Also, they were among the highest-scoring attacking duos in the Premier League last season and were constantly involved in their team goals all season.

The duo have managed 32 goals among themselves since the start of last season, contributing to 46% of their team’s 70 goals in that period.
Raul Garcia and Ante Budimir
It has been a mutually beneficial partnership between the Spaniard and the Croatian at Osasuna. They are among the best attacking duos in Europe’s top League last season.
While Budimir has been the main goalscoring source for the Spanish side, Raul Garcia has certainly played his part in lifting that burden off his teammate.
The attacking duo scored 26 out of their team’s 51 goals, playing a part in 51% of the goals scored by their team.
Mason Greenwood and Borja Mayoral
Following his loan spell at Getafe last season, Mason Greenwood formed a strong attacking partnership with Borja Mayoral.
