After Tuesday&#8217;s European fixtures, Raphinha is slowly catching up with Kane and Salah in terms of total goals across all competitions this term. While England&#8217;s captain and the Egyptian star have scored 32 goals each, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goal.com\/en\/lists\/raphinha-closes-in-remarkable-lionel-messi-record-demolition-benfica-barcelona-champions-league-last-16-triumph\/blt891e4f423fdb8f17\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brazilian now has 27 goals to his name, including a competition-leading 11 in the Champions League<\/a>, the most of any Brazilian player in a single season of European football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Hailing Raphinha&#8217;s incredible season, Arsenal legend and pundit Thierry Henry made a bold claim that the Blaugrana attacker is now the favourite to win the Ballon d&#8217;Or, giving him the edge over Kane and Salah because he doesn&#8217;t take penalties. Speaking on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cbssportsgolazo\/status\/1899605645608853888?s=46&amp;t=dNwL6xdcpYbILj1ogwHKEw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>CBS Sports<\/em><\/a>, the Frenchman said: &#8220;Raphinha is ahead for me now, he is ahead because of what he is doing in the Champions League. He has 11 goals in the Champions League. Mo Salah is a great contender for it, Kane is a contender and [Ousmane] Dembele. It depends if you perform in the Champions League, on top of winning your league. Raphinha is on a lot of goals and with only one penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;I am not saying that Kane and Salah should not be having penalties. Mo Salah is having a season in the Premier League that we will never see again. I am saying that if a guy has virtually the same amount of goals as you guys scored, without penalties, I am not going to say that is bad what you did &#8211; it is outstanding &#8211; but this guy I have to talk a bit more about him. Raphinha, when people talk about being complete as a striker, you need to know about putting on pressure, defending, and helping your full-back.
