Premier League top goal scorers 2023-2024: Updated golden boot rankings as Erling Haaland targets own EPL record

By | September 30, 2023

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 has come out of the gates strong once again.

After just six matches, Haaland is already the leader in the Premier League Golden Boot rankings with eight goals. Following a hat-trick in City’s 5-1 win over Fulham on September 2, Haaland added another in the 3-1 victory over West Ham and struck again against Nottingham Forest the following weekend.

Only Tottenham’s Heung-min Son is within three of the talented Norwegian as Haaland begins to pull away from the chasing pack already.

As was the case throughout the past two seasons, 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.
