Top 5 Goalscorers of the 2017-18 Italian Serie A season

#2 Mauro Icardi

Icardi is the undisputed leader of his Inter Milan side

Mauro Icardi produced some class performances in the entire season. His darting forays unsettled the opposition’s defense, while he showcased his class with his sensational finishing at an exhilarating pace.

His counter-attacks outclassed even the best defenses, while his intensity and resolute approach on the field boosted his teammates to give their best on the field. The Argentine has this knack for creating chances for other forwards with his creative moves and his ability to move deep inside the territory of the rival.

The Inter Milan skipper scored 29 goals in 34 matches in the 2017-18 Serie A season with one assist to his name. He also linked up well with the midfield and was a key figure in the Inter Milan forward line.

Icardi was instrumental for his side when they beat Verona 3-0 in March as the skipper netted two goals in that game. However, his best performance came against city rivals AC Milan, where he scored a hat-trick in Inter's 3-2 victory over their eternal rivals.

The 25-year-old looks tactically intelligent with his attacking moves inside the box and was the outstanding performer in an otherwise struggling Nerazzurri side, that just missed out on Champions League football.
