Spaniards who were pichichis in other leagues

Last update 8 November, 2014 by Alberto Llopis

Recently convened Spain, José Callejón enjoyed in Italy of his best moments as a professional. The player now enrolled in the ranks of Napoli's top scorer in Serie A with eight goals. Also it makes no logic to be center forward and putting the collective good of their own. To his 27 years, Granada aspires to become the first Spanish man to become top scorer in a major European league (understood as the English, french, Italian or German and leaving the margin the Spanish).

Definitely, an unprecedented if we consider that you can count on the fingers of the hand players born in Spain that have been the top scorer outside the Iberian Peninsula. and it, because only two Spanish players have achieved this distinction. In Europe, was recently Jonathan Soriano who succeeded last year in Austria at the hands of the Red Bull Salzburg. More distant memory appears Basque Isidro Langara, which he managed to be crowned twice top scorer in Mexico in the almost forgotten 1943 y 1945.

Scorers Spanish in other leagues:

Isidro Langara- Mexico, 1943 y 1945

Jonathan Soriano- Austria, 2014

Soriano es el único español que ha sido máximo goleador en Europa.
Soriano is the only Spanish that has been top scorer in Europe.

Neither the continued exodus of Spanish Footballers Greece, Cyprus Inglaterra (where Michu was about two years ago) It has allowed the moment to improve a balance that makes Spain the only major power able to export goalscorers outside its borders. Villa, Raúl (curiously still top scorer in the Champions), Butragueño, Guiza, Torres, Llorente…They have been countless players who have had the opportunity. But only two have achieved. followed by a third wake them.
