Whether solely focusing on the Premier League, or considering all competitions, Romelu Lukaku is currently a single strike ahead of his closest competitor, midfielder Paul Pogba.
Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial are also in the hunt as they could easily force their way ahead of Lukaku and Pogba with a strong end to the campaign.
Lukaku, who missed our last outing, the Emirates FA Cup defeat at Wolves, and both of Belgium's Euro 2020 qualifiers with a foot problem, leads the way with 15 goals.
Pogba is one behind, with five of his efforts coming from the penalty spot, as he enjoys one of the most productive seasons of his career so far.
