The list of the strongest strikers in world football is announced every year, and this time, the popular British sports publication FourFourTwo presented its updated top-10 striker ranking for 2025. This structure once again highlighted the sharpest and most dangerous attackers in modern football. This time, at the top of the ranking is Kylian Mbappe, the star of Real Madrid and the French national team.
Mbappe's first season with his new team was filled with successes. This year, the star won the UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup with the "royal club," managing to score 43 goals in 56 matches across all competitions. With this performance, he demonstrated a universal and effective play in the attacking line.
In the ranking compiled by the experts of FourFourTwo, the second place was awarded to Bayern forward Harry Kane. The next spot was taken by PSG winger Ousmane Dembele. They also deserve special mention for their outstanding performances in the last season with their teams.
In the fourth and fifth places are Newcastle United player Alexander Isak and Manchester City forward Erling Haaland. Interestingly, Haaland was only placed fifth due to not winning any trophies this season. Other stars included in the strong ten are: Robert Lewandowski (Barselona), Lautaro Martinez (Inter), Viktor Dyokeresh (Sporting), Omar Marmush (Manchester City), and Julian Alvarez (Atletico Madrid).
This ranking shows that not only classic central strikers but also versatile forwards who actively operate on the wings have been highly rated. For example, lesser-known players like Isak, Dyokeresh, and Marmush, who amazed the football world with their excellent performances last season, also managed to make it into the top ten.
