Karim Benzema is not the only man with goal in LaLiga Santander. The forward of the Real Madrid is signing a beginning of season sensacional, reason by which is one of the candidates with more possibilities to win the Balloon of Gold, but already has competitors in the fight for turning into the maximum artilleryman of the season 2021-2022. If it follows with this level will be imparable, but also has to have care.

And it is that LaLiga search to the heir of Messi in the Pichichi. The Argentinian with the FC Barcelona won the trophy in eight opportunities and in the last years was a 'fixed'. Precisely Benzema tried to contest him the recognition in the last year, but 'The Flea' signed to be imparable. Now, the French has, in theory, the free way and like this has showed it with 10 goals in 11 days that carries the Madrid, although he has played only ten parties. It goes out to goal by clash.

However, in the fight have added several footballers, that warn that there will be fight by the Pichichi this year to the end. With seven goals, stand out Luis Suárez (Athletic of Madrid), Raúl of Tomás (Espanyol), Vinícius Jr (Real Madrid). Whereas with six, are Mikel Oyarzabal (Real Sociedad) and Memphis Depay (FC Barcelona). They follow him, with 5, Radamel Falcao (Ray Vallecano), Arnaut Danjuma (Villarreal), Joselu (Alavés) and finally Iago Sails (Celtic of Vigo).

The 'Gunman' went back to mark in this day, against Valencia, in a party in which it opened the marker and afterwards saw from the bench how his team left empatar the marker. Suárez always is a dangerous candidate in the career for being the maximum artilleryman and in this season is having a lot of confidence of face to the goal. Likewise, Raúl of Tomás is being one of the big novelties of this campaign and his smell goleador is being a balsam for the recently risen Espanyol.

Of the same way, Vinícius Jr is being a surprise and good news for a Real Madrid that finally is seeing the fruits of his investment does some years. The Brazilian has improved his definition and has improved his historical registers in the White House. Now no only it has desborde and dribbling, but also goal. His growth has been exponential and also aims to litigate by the Pichchi.

Being constant, can give fight to Karim Benzema, in the peak.
