Goals Scored - 17

The Frenchman had a poor month of April, where he scored just one goal from six games. Sevilla, who were once challenging Barcelona for the title, gave up their title ambitions meekly and are now at a danger of missing out a top four place. It is a stark change of fortunes for the side, even though they did win four of their six games in the month.

Ben Yedder started in all of those six games but struggled to find the back of the net. He did pick up assists in the wins over Alaves and Real Betis but his solitary goal in the month came against Rayo Vallecano. Most importantly, Ben Yedder failed to score in the 3-0 defeat at the hands of Getafe, which dealt Sevilla a heavy blow in their quest for Champions League football next season.

The Frenchman has scored 17 goals and has provided eight assists in 32 games in La Liga this season, but stands no realistic chance of winning the Golden Boot this time.
