10. Lamine Yamal - Barcelona (Down 2)
There is no doubt whatsoever that the only reason Lamine Yamal is this low is due to the fact that he has yet to get fully up and running after returning from injury.
With four goals and three assists in his last six games, Lamine's only matches where he didn't register a goal involvement this month were in losses to Real Madrid and PSG.
Let's see where he appears in this Power Ranking next month!
9. Gabriel - Arsenal (New entry)
The first centre-back appearance of the season comes from Gabriel, who has been the leading figure in the best defence in Europe.
Before the weekend’s 2-2 draw at Sunderland, Arsenal had won 10 games in a row and equalled a stunning club record of eight consecutive clean sheets in all competitions.
An utter powerhouse who puts his body on the line for his team, Gabriel has also been one of Arsenal’s main attacking threats. Almost unstoppable from set pieces, he has a goal and three assists across all competitions, but he has been involved in more goals just by being a sheer presence in the penalty area.
8. Vitinha - PSG (New entry)
It hasn’t been a straightforward season for PSG as they struggle with injury problems and not really getting any time off this summer, but Vitinha continues to be their midfield maestro.
The French champions sit at the top of Ligue 1, with Vitinha registering six assists - the joint-most across Europe's top five leagues. He also has eight across all competitions, more than anyone else.
A joy to watch, PSG will be hoping that Vitinha can continue to lead the way while their key players get back to full fitness.
7. Achraf Hakimi - PSG (New entry)
It is such a shame that Achraf Hakimi suffered a brutal injury against Bayern Munich, which has ruled him out for up to eight weeks, especially considering how well he was playing.
A flying full back, Hakimi has three assists in the Champions League as well as two goals in Ligue 1, and has proven that he is far more than just an attacking defender, improving the defensive part of his game tenfold.
Hopefully, he will be back and ready for the Africa Cup of Nations, which is set to be hosted in his home nation of Morocco.
6. Nuno Mendes - PSG (New entry)
Another new entry in this ranking, Nuno Mendes joins his full-back partner Hakimi in the Power Rankings. Arguably the best full-back in the world, the Portuguese superstar can do absolutely everything.
In a PSG team that hasn’t been at their best, Mendes remains the complete package, and a pair of amazing performances against Barcelona and Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League confirmed that.
However, like several other PSG players, he is currently out with an injury after spraining his knee.
5. Luiz Diaz - Bayern Munich (Up 2)
What a signing Luis Diaz has been for Bayern, and what a rich vein of form he is in. The Colombian has six goals and four assists in 10 Bundesliga matches this season, as well as three goals in the Champions League.
Before getting sent off, Diaz was the catalyst behind Bayern’s win at PSG in Europe, bagging a brace. He also scored a wondergoal recently against Union Berlin from the most ridiculous angle.
But Diaz offers more than just goals and assists. His pressing and ball-carrying make him a phenomenal asset, and Vincent Kompany must absolutely love having him in Munich.
4. Michael Olise - Bayern Munich (Up 1)
The second of three Bayern players, Michael Olise has been superb for the Bavarians. A creative star with buckets of ability, the Frenchman has four assists in the league as well as three in the Champions League.
His form has dipped a little bit in recent games. However, he has still done more than enough this season to be this high on the power rankings.
3. Kylian Mbappe - Real Madrid (Down 1)
The top three on this list are in otherworldly form, and it was hard to separate them.
Real Madrid are at the top of LaLiga, and Kylian Mbappe has been a key to that, scoring 18 goals for his club this season, to go alongside three more with France.
Utterly electrifying, the Frenchman looks to have reached another level compared to some of his ‘struggles’ last season. However, there do remain some questions about whether he is an out-and-out centre forward, and he did struggle in Madrid’s poor loss at Liverpool and their goalless draw at Rayo Vallecano.
2. Erling Haaland - Manchester City (Up 1)
We are witnessing goalscoring greatness with Erling Haaland. The sensational centre forward is scoring at a rate comparable only to prime Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester City look to be hitting top form now, with their recent 3-0 thumping of Liverpool putting them four points behind Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Incredibly, the Norwegian has 28 goals this campaign in just 18 games, and teams are finding it absolutely impossible to stop him. He is certainly closing in on Kane in top spot.
1. Harry Kane - Bayern Munich (-)
Bayern Munich have had a record-breaking start to the season, and the fact that they are still unbeaten, as well as sitting top of the Bundesliga and the Champions League, makes it impossible not to lean towards the exploits of Harry Kane.
The England striker continues to score goals at a phenomenal clip, with 25 goals for club and country already this season, including 22 for Bayern Munich.
Part of a fearsome front three, Bayern look the real deal this season, and Kane is set to be a key player as they eye glory on all fronts.
