Thierry Henry and Mohamed Salah have the most Premier League Golden Boots, with four each. The award goes to the player or players who finish as the league's top scorer, and Erling Haaland won it in 2025/26 with 27 goals.
How the Golden Boot is awarded
The Premier League has presented the Golden Boot since 1992/93. It is awarded to the player with the most goals in a league season.
If players finish level at the top of the scoring chart, the award is shared. Each tied player receives a Golden Boot, which is why some seasons have more than one winner.
