5 Spanish players with the most goals so far this season
Spanish football has never failed to impress, having time and again produced technical geniuses on the pitch. One thing that is common among them is their elegance on the ball.
Even the youngest of Spanish footballers have shown sheer class and confidence with the ball at their feet. That being said, it would be great if the country starts producing more lethal goal-scorers like they had in previous decades.
Spanish players are never shy of creativity
The 2021-22 campaign has witnessed some fine goal-scoring by Spanish players. Here, we take a look at the Spaniards who have scored the most goals so far this season.
Note: All competitions in club football are considered
#5 Iago Aspas (Celta Vigo)
Having played nine seasons in La Liga, Iago Aspas has made more than 300 appearances for Celta Vigo. The left-footed striker has been a regular goal-scorer in the league and continues to do so.
The Spaniard has so far scored 13 goals in the league this campaign, the fifth-most in Spain's top-tier football. His amazing positioning and clinical finishing have helped him score more than 150 goals for Celta Vigo.

Iago Aspas will be looking to do well in the final third of the season to ensure a place in the 2022 FIFA World Cup squad. He remains one of the most natural goal-scoring options for head coach Luis Enrique to lead the attack.
#4 Raúl de Tomás (Espanyol)
Coming through the ranks at Real Madrid, Raul de Tomas went on multiple loan spells in Spain before joining Benfica. The Spaniard didn't enjoy his time much in Portugal and returned to play for Espanyol in the 2020-21 season.
Since then, he has been a vital player for the club, having helped them earn promotion to the top division last season. Raul de Tomas has so far scored 14 goals in 27 La Liga appearances this campaign.
Only Karim Benzema (15) has given his side more points than Raúl de Tomás (14) this season.
He is also second to the Frenchman in the Pichichi race. https://t.co/KtcFufTZQd
The Spaniard is the second-highest goal-scorer in the league and has the third-most goal contributions so far. It is likely that the 27-year old might move to a new club next summer given his impressive performances.
