#3 Philipp Max (Augsburg) 13 assists in 27 games
A surprise name on the list is left-back Philipp Max. The German has enjoyed a breakthrough season this year and has 13 assists to his name.
Signed by Augsburg in 2015, the 24-year-old has made 68 league appearances for the club. He has taken his game to another level this season with his pin-point crosses a major source of Augsburg's goals.
He often makes a late overlap, gets the ball and delivers accurate crosses into the box. His excellent crossing ability rewarded him, as manager Manuel Baum put him on set-piece duty which has further helped him rack up the numbers.
Excellent crossers of the ball are hard to find these days and it will not be a surprise if Europe's biggest clubs decide to make a move for the left-back in the near future if he continues to impress.
