Can Italy defend their title and win back-to-back European Cups? Fans would expect them to, and to do that, goals are a nice thing to have.
Some people would disagree and quote Sir Alex Ferguson who said: "Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles," However, with all due respect, the iconic Scotsman was wrong and stats prove that: the team that scores more than the others, usually wins games AND titles.
So, who will be scoring goals for Italy when the tournament kicks off, and who is most likely to become Scuadra Azzurra's top goal-scorer at 2024 Euro?
Italy's best goal-scorer at 2024 Euro: Betting odds
The players bookies have the most faith in, represent three Serie A sides: Napoli, Lazio and Juventus. Let's have a look at the rankings!
Federico Chiesa: 5.0
Ciro Immobile: 6.0
Giacomo Raspadori: 6.0
Moise Kean: 7.0
Matteo Politano: 9.0
Why are there no Inter players in the rankings?
Inter have secured the Scudetto: with four games left to play, they are head and shoulders or, more precisely, 19 points above second-placed arch-rivals Milan. Why do bookmakers ignore the Nerazzurri players then, given Inter have scored 81 goals in the Serie A this season?
The answer is quite simple: none of the four attackers at Simone Inzaghi's disposal is Italian. The most-scoring Italian player on Inter's roster this season is Davide Frattesi, a centre-mid: he has 7 strikes in 38 appearances in all competitions.
