Ferran Torres: Europe's Most Efficient Striker Outshining Haaland, Mbappé, and Salah in 2024-25

When discussing Europe's elite goal-scorers this season, names like Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappé, and Mohamed Salah dominate headlines. However, Ferran Torres, Barcelona's underrated super-sub, has quietly surpassed them all with the best goals-per-minute ratio in Europe's top five leagues.

Torres’ Stunning Efficiency

The Spanish forward has netted 16 goals in just 1,266 minutes (33 appearances) across all competitions, averaging a goal every 79.1 minutes—the best mark in Europe. His recent heroics include the semifinal winner against Atletico Madrid, sending Barça to the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid.
