Final standings

1) Harry Kane Club: BayernGoals: 26Appearances: 31

Kane stormed to the top of the Bundesliga goalscoring charts last season - even going close to Robert Lewandowski's all-time single-campaign record of 41 on his way to 36 strikes - and he has carried that form into the current term. The England captain ended with three hat-tricks, including against 2023/24 runners-up VfB Stuttgart, taking his total tally of trebles to seven in less than one and a half seasons. A hamstring injury in the Klassiker against Borussia Dortmund stopped him in his tracks but he returned to action on Matchday 15 and has been in fine scoring form ever since.

=2) Serhou Guirassy, Patrik SchickClub: Borussia Dortmund, Bayer LeverkusenGoals: 21Appearances: 30, 31

After a mixed start to life in Dortmund, Guirassy has been more and prolific as the season has progressed. He ends with 21 goals in the league - including a fantastic four-goal haul against Union Berlin and six strikes in his last five Bundesliga outings - and 13 strikes in the UEFA Champions League, underlining his status as one of the beest strikers in Germany.

Despite only making 18 Bundesliga starts in 2024/25, Schick remains among the league's sharpest shooters. It is a feat made all the more remarkable given that 17 of his efforts were scored between Matchdays 10 and 26, with the 28-year-old having played second fiddle to Victor Boniace for much of the campaign before the latter suffered an injury. He was on target four times against Freiburg on Matchday 15, netting his second hat-trick of the season following his treble against Heidenheim on Matchday 11.

4) Jonathan BurkardtClub: MainzGoals: 18Appearances: 29

One of Germany's brightest young strikers, Burkardt was well on his way fulfilling his potential before a serious knee injury struck him down in 2022/23. The centre-forward needed 11 months to recover, but eight goals in 21 matches last season suggested his ability remained. His return to form coincided with Bo Henriksen's arrival, and after a full summer working together, Burkardt has led - both literally and metaphorically as captain - Mainz's charge up the table this season. Some 18 strikes have followed, including match-winning braces against Augsburg and Hoffenheim, as well as a winner at Leipzig - a goal that ultimately proved vital as Mainz qualified for the UEFA Conference League.

5) Tim KleindienstClub: Borussia MönchengladbachGoals: 16Appearances: 31

A late bloomer, Kleindienst's star continues to rise. Twelve goals for Heidenheim in their maiden Bundesliga term earned him a move to traditional giants Gladbach this summer, and he has settled in quickly at Borussia-Park. He scored on his debut against Bayer Leverkusen, and followed that up with another strike against Bochum the following week, setting the tone for a campaign that most recently included a dramatic injury-time leveller in the 4-4 goal-fest against Hoffenheim on Matchday 32. The kind of form that saw him become the one of the highest-scoring German players in the Bundesliga earned Kleindienst his first call-up to the national team in October - and he now has four goals in his first six international appearances.

=6) Omar Marmoush, Hugo Ekitiké, Ermedin DemirovićClub: Manchester City (formerly at Eintracht Frankfurt), Eintracht Frankfurt, VfB StuttgartGoals: 15Appearances: 17, 33, 34

Marmoush showed glimpses of his goalscoring ability last season, netting on 12 occasions in 29 Bundesliga outings, but he took his game to the next level this time round. The Egyptian found the back of the net in 11 of Eintracht's 17 matches, with his most eye-catching performance coming against Bayern - he created one and scored two, including a last-minute equaliser, in a 3-3 draw. That game came during a run of nine goals in six matches, and Marmoush proved himself to be an adept free-kick taker, finding the back of the net with two set-pieces. He gained as many as nine assists also before leaving Eintracht Frankfurt in January.

Ekitiké has flourished in his first full season in Frankfurt, having joined from PSG in January 2024. Blessed with skill and quick feet that defy his 6'2" (1.89m) frame, the rangy forward struck up a productive partnership with Marmoush and has scored with increasing consistency even after the Egyptian - as well as chipping in with the odd assist.

After a fantastic season with Augsburg last time out, Demirović replaced the Guirassy-shaped hole at Stuttgart. The 2024/25 campaign has had its ups and downs for the Bosnia international - he scored five goals in his first six league games but struggled to match that pace in the following months. There can be no complaints overall though at the 15 goals he has struck, especially after a blistering hat-trick in a 4-0 win at Bochum on Matchday 28.
