After back-to-back Erling Haaland wins, Mohamed Salah returned to the top of the Premier League’s scoring charts last season, and the pair had been expected to tussle for Golden Boot honours in 2025–26.
The award has been handed out to the leading scorer(s) of each Premier League season since the competition’s inauguration in 1992.
Some of the sport’s finest sharpshooters have tested their talents on English shores, and one of the contemporary greats, Haaland, has threatened to monopolise this scoring prize since he arrived from Borussia Dortmund in 2022. The Nordic goal-machine broke the Premier League’s single-season scoring record in year one and, after losing out to Salah last year, is performing like a striker determined to reclaim the esteemed individual award.
Here's a look at the 2025–26 Premier League Golden Boot race.
