We’ve only just passed the mid-season mark, but Aleksandar Mitrovic has already broken his single-season goal record with Fulham. Author of 27 goals in 24 Championship matches (English D2) with Fulham, the former Sporting Anderlecht striker is busy having the best campaign of his career.
At 27, ‘Mitro’ is like a fish in water within the impressive collective of Fulham. Led by the Portuguese Mark Silva (ex-Everton and Watford), Fulham dominates the Championship by exploding the goal counter with 64 goals, 20 more than the 2nd best attack Blackburn.
Offensive terminal par excellence of the Cottagers, Mitrovic is the symbol of this formidable offensive efficiency. Author of a hat-trick against Bristol City on Saturday, he once again made a strong impression. In two matches in 2022, the Serbian striker already has 5 goals and 2 assists.
Figures that make the former Anderlecht resident hover, now an idol in his country after having qualified Serbia for the World Cup in a historic match against Portugal. A nice revenge for the one who had deprived his national team of Euro 2020 by missing a shot on goal in the decisive session against Scotland in November 2020.
In full confidence and perfectly launched in its year 2022, Mitro still has great things to do in the coming months. Ensure promotion in the Premier League of his own, cross the bar of 200 career goals (he is at 193 goals) and finally end the year in style with a successful World Cup.
