In the Championship, Borja Sainz has become a formidable striker. With 17 goals in 33 games, the 24-year-old Biscayan attacker is the standout player for Norwich City and the top scorer in the league.

Trained in the Athletic Club academy, Sainz has found in England the perfect stage for his art. Although a six-game suspension temporarily kept him off the field, his return was like a volcano erupting, scoring in two consecutive games. Despite Norwich's recent struggles, with four winless games and a 12th position in the table, Sainz's star continues to shine brightly.

Even with the suspension, Borja Sainz is the top scorer in the Championship.

The 101-day goal drought in the Championship only added to Sainz's legend, as no other striker has even come close to his numbers. While Piroe from Leeds tries to keep up with 15 goals in 37 games, the difference is immense. The 'magician' from Leioa is not only a natural goal scorer but also a playmaker with 4 assists this season, showing exceptional growth from his previous campaign where he scored only 8 goals.

With an estimated market value of 12 million euros, according to 'Transfermarkt,' Sainz has not only caught attention in England but has also piqued the interest of Athletic Club as a possible replacement for Nico Williams. His right foot is a lethal weapon, combining speed, dribbling, and vision from the left wing, making him a complete and dangerous player.

Norwich City's coach, Johannes Thourp, had predicted his triumphant return after the draw against Oxford City, ensuring that Sainz's goals would inevitably return. And so it was, with two striking performances that reaffirm his status as one of the most feared forwards in the league.

As long as Sainz continues to break records and tear apart opposing defenses, his meteoric rise seems destined to bring him back to the Premier League, where Norwich hopes to return soon thanks to their undisputed star.
