Former defender Mateusz Żukowski has emerged as the top scorer in Germany's second division, playing for FC Magdeburg. This season, he has scored 17 goals in 18 matches, trailing only Bayern Munich's Harry Kane. Initially signed as a right-back for €250,000, Żukowski was moved to a forward position by the team's new coach, Patrick Sander, after recovering from an injury that sidelined him for the first eight games. His impressive performances are now attracting attention from larger clubs, and he may leave Magdeburg at the end of the season.
An unexpected player is leading the goalscorers' list in the German 2. Bundesliga. Magdeburg club member Mateush Jukovski has managed to score 17 goals in 18 appearances this season. Goal.com reports on this.
In terms of this result, he trails only Bayern Munich forward Xarri Keyn. While Keyn scores every 65 minutes, Jukovski finds the back of the net every 93 minutes.
In fact, Magdeburg purchased the 24-year-old Polish footballer last year as a right-back for 250,000 euros. Due to an injury, he missed the first eight matches.
The team's new head coach, Petrik Sander, decided to test him in attack after seeing his powerful shots during training sessions. This change has delivered unexpectedly positive results.
Jukovski's childhood was difficult, and he chose football to provide financial support for his family. Now, his impressive performances are attracting the attention of major clubs, and he may leave the team at the end of the season.
