Top Candidates for the Premier League’s Golden Boot Award 2018/2019

The race to win this season’s Golden Boot Award in the Premier League is shaping up to be one of the most exciting battles in recent years.

Chelsea star Eden Hazard currently leads the way with seven goals, with Sergio Aguero (Manchester City) and Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur) amongst a quartet of players who have scored five this term.

Glenn Murray (Brighton & Hove Albion) and Aleksandar Mitrovic (Fulham) are also tied for second place on five goals, but it’s difficult to imagine either player keeping pace with the front-runners as the season progresses.

There are nine players with four goals including Alexandre Lacazette (Arsenal) and Romelu Lukaku (Manchester United), while last year’s winner Mohamed Salah has scored just three times this season.
