Borussia Dortmund are one of the best clubs to develop young raw players who are aiming to become a top star in future. Over the years, the German club has bought many such individuals and successfully developed them into elite players. Additionally, they have produced centre-forwards who have significantly influenced the team before transferring to other prestigious European clubs.

In this article, let’s look at the top three strikers who have scored the highest number of goals in a single Champions League campaign for Borussia Dortmund.

3. Robert Lewandowski (2012/13) – 10 goals

The 2012-13 season signified Robert Lewandowski's emergence as a highly promising striker, leading Borussia Dortmund to the final of the tournament. The Polish forward had an outstanding season, with his most notable performance coming in the semi-final against Real Madrid, where he scored four goals.

It was a season where he captivated everyone with his performance and demonstrated his qualities on one of the biggest stages of the competition. His performance remains a topic of discussion, particularly his remarkable four goals scored against the Los Blancos.

2. Erling Haaland (2020/21) – 10 goals

Erling Haaland's time at Borussia Dortmund was characterized by an impressive goal-scoring record, as the forward established himself as one of the most effective scorers in the sport. Although he couldn’t win anything meaningful there, he did enjoy many big moments. He guided the German club to the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 2020-21 season, where he scored 10 goals in the tournament.

Although they were defeated by PSG in the knockout stages, Haaland individually had an excellent season as he scored plenty of goals.
