Forget Lionel Messi, Christian Benteke or the other stars of the United States championship. The top scorer for this 2023 season is trained at… FC Lorient.
Having passed through Merlus between 2014 and 2018 before joining Nîmes then Saint-Étienne, Denis Bouanga was a hit this year on the other side of the Atlantic.
Arriving at Los Angeles FC in August 2022, the Gabonese winger scored, in this calendar year 2023 (the format of the American championship), a whopping 20 goals in 31 MLS matches. No other player did better before the North American League play-offs.
The 28-year-old native of Le Mans notably scored two hat-tricks: in April against Austin and at the beginning of October against Minnesota.
His team logically qualified for the play-offs.
