The top contenders for the European Golden Boot, awarded to the highest goalscorer across Europe’s domestic leagues, have emerged.
Viktor Gyökeres remains at the top heading into the final stretch of the season, Idman.biz reports.
The Swedish striker from Sporting leads the race with 39 goals scored in the Portuguese league. However, the season in Portugal has already ended.
Kylian Mbappé and Mohamed Salah still have the chance to overtake him. The French forward, now with Real Madrid, needs to score 1 goal in the final match of the Spanish league to move ahead. Meanwhile, Salah — with two matches left for Liverpool — needs 2 goals to surpass Gyökeres.
