With goals holding the paramount gravity in the game, players who have found the back of the net regularly make it to the elite group.
But what about the players who averaged the highest goals per minute record? Let's have a look.
Alaaeddine Ajaraie (NorthEast United FC): 93.43 mins/goal

Ajaraie racked up another record to his name by scoring a goal every 93.43 minutes, the highest such tally by any player this season.
Jesus Jimenez (Kerala Blasters FC): 122.36 mins/goal
Another debutant, Jesus Jimenez, comes second in the list with a goal every 122 minutes. The Spanish forward scored 11 goals this season, which is the second-highest tally by any KBFC player in their debut season.
