Serie A striker comparison: Mandzukic and Icardi more clinical than Higuain
But if the Argentinean’s scoring record will be probably unreachable for any other player during this campaign, there four Serie A strikers who have a better ratio of goals per shot than the former Real Madrid hit-man, who has scored 16 goals from 36 shots on target (44%).
Juventus’ Mario Mandzukic has netted six goals from just eight shots (75%), while Inter’s Mauro Icardi has 7 from 11 attempts (64%).
Carlos Bacca is the third best Serie A striker in terms of goals per shot ratio. The Colombia International has scored 8 goals out of 15 shots (53%).
Fiorentina’s new signing Nikola Kalinic has attempted 20 shots, scoring 10 goals (50%).
No surprise that Roma ‘hit-man’ Edin Dzeko has recorded the worst record among Serie A’s top club strikers with three goals from 21 shots (14%).
