Messi, Ronaldo or Lewandowski? Who was the deadliest finisher in Europe this season?

Sadio Mane
Expect to see the influence of the 25-year-old grow and grow next term

#4 Joshua King

Joshua King
King struck a formidable 16 times last season, including 75% of his big chances

Norway international Joshua King may only be 25-years-old, but he has already seen a lot in his young footballing career. He was once on the books of Manchester United but rarely threatened to make the breakthrough at Old Trafford, despite loan spells spent at Preston, Borussia Monchengladbach, Hull City and Blackburn.

He ultimately moved to Blackburn and from there he made the switch to Bournemouth in the summer of 2015. Following a relatively modest first season on the south coast, he has come good in spectacular fashion under Eddie Howe in his second campaign.

King struck a formidable 16 times last season, including 75% of his big chances.

Often playing just off the forwards, he was especially good in the second half of the season, during which 13 of his goals arrive. It bodes well for next time around.
