When it comes to ranking the European leagues with the best attackers at the moment, there is no way the Serie A can be omitted - with the Italian top flight now in possession of some of the finest finishers on the continent who are proving themselves with their explosive performances.

The division welcomed one of the most potent goalscorers of this generation when Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo left Real Madrid to join Juventus during the summer transfer window and the former Los Blancos attacker has been running riot in the Italian top flight ever since he switched to the Old Ladies Stadium, unbalancing opposition defenses and making goalscoring look like a routine with his unstoppable finishing skills.

However, Ronaldo isn't the only one who is impressing in front goal in the Seria A this season - there are other superstars who have also been running riot and making name for themselves with their incredible goalscoring exploits in the division since the beginning of the campaign.

Therefore, let's quickly take a look at the top 5 goalscorers in the Italian top flight so far during the term:
