Artem Dovbyk, a CHELSEA transfer target, scored a hat-trick in six minutes to help Girona defeat Sevilla 5-1 on Sunday.
Isaac Romero gave Sevilla the lead in the tenth minute, but Dovbyk tied the score three minutes later.
The attacker then quickly put his team ahead before completing his hat-trick in the nineteenth minute.
Due to his outstanding play, Dovbyk tied LaLiga Golden Boot winner Jude Bellingham, a midfielder for Real Madrid.
With the Ukrainian having played two more games than his English opponent, both players have now scored 14 goals.
Viktor Tsyhankov and Cristhian Stuani added goals as Girona went on to win 5-1.
They are now one point ahead of Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga standings.
One of the team’s most important players thus far this season has been Dovbyk.
And he’s drawn notice from other quarters due to his outstanding performances.
Last month, SunSport exclusively disclosed that Chelsea was interested in signing him.
This season, Mauricio Pochettino has deployed scouts to observe Dovbyk.
The 26-year-old’s physical attributes have really pleased the Blues manager.
