Barcelona is enjoying a fantastic season in attack, and the trio of Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Fermín López deserves special credit for this success. The three players have become a goal-scoring machine, making the Catalan attack the most productive in Europe during the 2026/2027 season.
According to the Spanish newspaper “Mundo Deportivo”, Barcelona have scored 62 goals in all competitions, 50 of which have come with the contribution of their attacking trio.
The Catalans have scored 48 goals in La Liga and 14 in the Champions League. A striking statistic, as after the first 16 matches they have scored 14 more goals than in the same period of the 2011/2012 season, when at the end of that edition they recorded 190 goals in 64 games.
In the Spanish league, the trio has scored 32 goals, while across both competitions the number rises to 40. Raphinha leads the list with 19 goals, followed by Lamine Yamal with 13 and Fermín López with 8.
Their superiority is also evident in comparison with European rivals. Barcelona’s trio has 12 more goals than the Real Madrid players in La Liga and 13 more goals than Bayern Munich’s trio in all competitions.
Yamal is also a protagonist in assists, with 12 decisive passes, compared to 6 for Fermín and 3 for Raphinha.
Coach Hansi Flick has built a significant part of the team’s play around these three players. Yamal operates on the right wing, Raphinha often plays as a false nine, while Fermín has taken on an important role in organising the play, often moving ahead of Dani Olmo.
