Mathias Gidsel Chasing Mikkel Hansen’s EHF Champions League Scoring Record

Mathias Gidsel is the top scorer in both the Bundesliga and the EHF Champions League. Crowned with the glory of being a European, world, and Olympic champion, and named the best player of the recent EHF EURO 2026 in Denmark, he is currently at the peak of his powers. The numbers in the EHF Champions League confirm that, as he sits comfortably at the top of the scoring charts with 120 goals.

Füchse Berlin have advanced directly to the quarter-finals, which means Gidsel has at least two and at most four matches left to play if the German champions reach the Final4 in Cologne. Last season, Mikkel Hansen’s record of 141 goals in a single season was also under threat, but Gidsel received a red card early in the semi-final in the LANXESS Arena, which prevented him from producing a major scoring output that weekend. He finished the season with 135 goals, placing second on the all-time single-season list. Now he once again has a realistic chance of surpassing his compatriot in this category. He needs 21 more goals.

This is the second season in a row in which Gidsel has gone past the 100-goal mark, while the only player to achieve that feat in three consecutive seasons was Serbian star Momir Ilić during his time at Veszprém (2013–2016).

This season, French PSG shooter Elohim Prandi (111) and Danish right wing Frederik Bjere (102), who will join Wisla Plock in the future, have also entered the 100-goal club for the first time.
