Revealed: Messi missing from stat leaders in Europe's top five leagues

With all of Europe's top five leagues done and dusted, now is the ideal opportunity to look at those that excelled in particular areas. Who completed the most dribbles? Who won the European Golden Boot? Who won the Golden Glove? All will now be revealed...

Most Goals - Ciro Immobile (Lazio) - 36

Transfermarkt Value - £36m

Ciro Immobile ended up two clear of Bayern Munich's Robert Lewandowski in the Golden Boot race across Europe's top five leagues. The Lazio striker scored more goals than 24 teams managed as squads in Europe's top five leagues.

Most Assists - Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich) - 21

Transfermarkt Value - £27m

Thomas Muller finished top of the charts alongside Lionel Messi but pips the Barcelona ace on fewer minutes played. Muller racked up as many assists as Messi despite playing 10 hours less football. A return of 21 assists is also a Bundesliga record in a single season.

Most Shots - Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus) - 208

Transfermarkt Value - £54m

Cristiano Ronaldo became the first Juventus player in 60 years to reach 25 goals in a single Serie A campaign this season and ended up with 31 to his name. It's not surprising he scored so many given he attempted at least 49 more shots than any other player in Europes top five leagues (208). In fact, Ronaldo only attempted 26 fewer shots than French side Amiens managed as a squad in their 28 games.

Most Key Passes - Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) - 136

Transfermarkt Value - £108m

Part of Kevin De Bruyne will no doubt feel aggrieved he didn't finish top for most assists on the continent. The Manchester City ace did at least match Thierry Henry's Premier League record for most assists in a single season and he created at least 30 more goalscoring chances than any other player in Europe's top five leagues.

Most Dribbles - Adama Traore (Wolves) - 184

Transfermarkt Value - £36m

Adama Traore is a dribbling machine and it's no surprise the Wolves ace ranks top here. Though the fact he finished top on the continent is perhaps even more impressive when you consider he dislocated his shoulder four times during the 2019/20 campaign.

Pass Accuracy - Thiago Silva (Paris Saint-Germain) - 95.5%

Transfermarkt Value - £4.32m

Thiago Silva will leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the month after eight years and his next club will certainly pick up a finer passer of the ball. In 21 league appearances this season the 35-year-old only misplaced 68 of a possible 1495 passes.

Tackles - Aaron Wan-Bissaka (Manchester United) - 129

Transfermarkt Value - £36m

Aaron Wan-Bissaka reaffirmed his position as the best defensive full-back in the Premier League during his maiden campaign with Manchester United, completing more dribbles than any other player in Europe's top five leagues. Notably, Wan-Bissaka also completed 85.4% of his attempted tackles.

Clearances - James Tarkowski (Burnley) - 200

Transfermarkt Value - £18m

Burnley centre-back James Tarkowski cemented himself in the WhoScored Team of the Season across Europe's top five leagues, helped by the fact he made the most clearances across all five leagues.

Saves - Aitor Fernandez (Levante) - 156

Transfermakrt Value - £9m

Levante were able to finish 13 points clear of relegation in LaLiga this season and goalkeeper Aitor Fernandez certainly played his part, making more saves than any other shot-stopper in Europe's top five leagues.

Clean Sheets - Thibaut Courtois (Real Madrid) - 18

Transfermarkt Value - £54m

After a rough first season at Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois rediscovered his best form in 2019/20 to claim the Golden Glove award in Europe's top five leagues. The 28-year-old kept a clean sheet in 18 of his 34 league appearances, helping Madrid boast the best defensive record on the continent (0.66 goals conceded per game).
