#3 Alexandre Lacazette | 28.9%
Despite a disappointing outing in the 2020/21 footballing calendar, Alexandre Lacazette was one of Premier League’s most clinical strikers this season - registering a 28.9% conversion rate.
Trending
The Frenchman endured a forgettable season with the Gunners - failing to create goalscoring opportunities. Despite making 31 Premier League appearances this season, Lacazette managed to register only 45 shots. That gives an output of 1.4 shots per game, which is subpar for a striker of his caliber.
Nonetheless, the 29-year has been extremely accurate whenever he has managed to find the space to shoot - racking up a stellar 64% shooting accuracy - with 29 shots on target. Lacazette has amassed a tally of 17 goals and 3 assists from 43 appearances across all competitions - scoring a goal every 144 minutes.
With an average of 0.42 goals per Premier League match, Lacazette has been directly involved in 15 goals (13 goals, 2 assists) in the PL season. Despite his impressive shot conversion stats, the Arsenal faithful expect a lot more from the Frenchman - especially in terms of converting chances in key moments.
#2 Gareth Bale | 29%
After a slow start to the season under Jose Mourinho, Gareth Bale has recreated his glory days at White Hart Lane - emerging as Tottenham’s third-highest goalscorer in just 34 appearances this season.
The Welshman moved to London on a loan spell from Real Madrid, but failed to impress Jose Mourinho in the first half of the season. Bale has made 20 Premier League appearances this season - out of which 10 came from the bench - accumulating a tally of 11 goals and 2 assists.
Bale averaged 0.55 goals per match from a total of 38 shots attempted. 19 of them were on target - earning him a shooting accuracy of 50%. The 31-year old recorded a conversion rate of 29% in the 2020/21 Premier League season - which included a game in which he scored 2 goals from 3 shots.
In 34 appearances across all competitions this season, Bale has been directly involved in 20 goals (16 goals, 4 assists).
#1 Edinson Cavani | 29.4%
Edinson Cavani has undoubtedly been Manchester United’s best signing of the 2020/21 season - continuing his exemplary goalscoring record in English football after a 7-year spell with PSG.
The Uruguayan featured mainly off the bench in the first half of the season - and notched up consistent performances in his limited playing time. Cavani scored 5 goals as a substitute this Premier League season - equalling the record held by his manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, for most goals as a substitute in a single PL season.
Top-notch performances from the bench earned Cavani a more consistent run in Manchester United’s starting XI, and he found a starting place in United’s Europa League finale against Villarreal.
In 26 Premier League appearances, Cavani has scored 10 goals at an average of 0.38 goals per Premier League match. The 34-year old is widely regarded as one of the most clinical finishers in European football - and has registered a 29.4% conversion rate with a 44% shooting accuracy in the Premier League this season.
