After setting a new single-season Premier League goals record (36 goals) en route to the Golden Boot award in 2022/23, Manchester City star Erling Haaland came out of the gates strong once again.
After 15 appearances, Haaland was comfortably the leader in the 2023/24 Golden Boot race, with 14 goals. However, after suffering a foot injury during City’s 1-0 defeat at Aston Villa in December, he did not play again until he made a substitute appearance in the 3-1 win over Burnley on January 31.
Mohamed Salah is right back on Haaland’s tail, however, his goal against Brentford taking him to 15 as he made a timely return from injury and Africa Cup of Nations duty.
In-form Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke is just one goal back after scoring against Newcastle United. He has edged ahead of Tottenham star Son Heung-min, who only recently returned from international duty with South Korea at the Asian Cup.
It certainly feels like this season’s battle to finish as the division’s leading goalscorer will be closer than it was a year ago, although Haaland’s brilliant brace to down Everton 2-0 on February 10 put him out in front once more.
The Sporting News will update the top scorers’ table below, with assists and minutes played serving as the first and second tiebreakers as per major European tournaments run by UEFA.
