Soccer has become a lot more fluid than it used to be. Gone are the days when players were tied to a single position or a role. Modern soccer is all about versatility. Forwards cannot be content only with scoring goals, midfielders with providing assists, and full-backs with providing support. Goals must flow from everywhere, forcing the opposition to keep guessing right until the end.
Today, we will take a look at a bunch of top players who defined versatility in the final third in the 2023-24 season, scoring goals and claiming assists with equal proficiency. Here are the top seven players with 10+ goals and assists across the top five European leagues in the 2023-24 season.
