Who has the best shot efficiency this season?
It will come as no surprise to see Bayern Munich's Harry Kane at the top of another goal-related chart, but who else joins him in the list of the most efficient finishers so far in 2025/26?
1. Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), +7.42
The Bayern forward is the very definition of ruthlessness. He has taken 54 shots at goal in the Bundesliga so far this term, of which 19 have found the back of the net.
However, statistically only 11.58 of those were expected to be goals, giving the 32-year-old a shot efficiency of +7.42, which is by far and away the best in the division.

2. Deniz Undav (VfB Stuttgart), +3.52
The Germany international has fired off the third-most shots in the Bundesliga this season (44), behind only Kane and Bayern winger Michael Olise.
Undav has the highest Expected Goals (xG) quota at Stuttgart (4.48), meaning his eight league strikes thus give him a shot efficiency of 3.52.

3. Can Uzun (Eintracht Frankfurt), +3.48
Uzun completes the podium places, squeezing in just behind Undav. The 20-year-old began 2025/26 in sensational form and, although he was hampered by injury for several weeks, he helped Eintracht find the net 22 times in the nine games he started (2.4 goals per game).
That figure dropped to 1.3 per game without him in the starting line-up (eight goals in six matches).

4. Albert Sambi Lokonga (Hamburg), +2.98
The HSV midfielder has only had 11 efforts at goal this season, but four of them have found their target. With an xG quota of just 1.02, he is among the most efficient shooters in the Bundesliga.
5. Yan Diomande (RB Leipzig), +2.84
One of the breakout stars of the season so far, the Leipzig winger has scored six times from 21 shots. Alongside Cologne winger Saïd El Mala, he is the top scoring teenager in Germany's top flight this term.
