The Premier League Golden Boot goes to the division's leading goalscorer at the end of each 38-game campaign. Since the competition's first season in 1992-93, the award has traced the careers of the game's most feared strikers — from Alan Shearer's mid-90s dominance to Thierry Henry's Arsenal peak, and on to the record-breaking hauls of Mohamed Salah and Erling Haaland.

Think you know this? Five questions

Tap to answer — no sign-up. The full list is right below.

  1. How many different men took charge of Sunderland (including caretakers) during the 2017-18 Championship season?

    Four men led the team: Simon Grayson (sacked October 2017), Billy McKinlay and Robbie Stockdale as joint caretakers for one match, then Chris Coleman, with Stockdale returning as caretaker for the final games after Coleman's dismissal in April 2018.

  2. Who scored the winning penalty for Arsenal in their 2005 FA Cup final shootout win over Manchester United?

    Arsenal won 5-4 on penalties; the captain who later moved to Juventus put away the decisive spot-kick.

  3. Which club was relegated in 2002-03 with 42 points — the highest total for a relegated side in a 38-game Premier League season?

    An East London club whose 42-point relegation remains a record they're still unhappy to hold.

  4. Whose goal capitalised on Steven Gerrard's infamous slip at Anfield in April 2014, effectively ending Liverpool's Premier League title bid?

    Gerrard slipped controlling a pass and Demba Ba raced through to open the scoring in Chelsea's 2-0 win. Willian added the second in stoppage time, set up by Fernando Torres; Ba was the man who pounced on the slip.

  5. How many points did Newcastle United accumulate in their famous 1995-96 title challenge that they still lost?

    Newcastle led by 12 points in January but a slump cost them — they finished on 78, four behind United's 82.

This table lists the top scorer for every completed Premier League season, along with the club they scored for and their final goal tally. Where the Boot was shared, all joint winners are listed together — the award has been split five times, most notably the three-way ties of 1997-98 and 1998-99, both settled on 18 goals.

A few numbers stand out. Haaland's 36 goals in 2022-23 is the highest total ever recorded by a Golden Boot winner across a 38-game season. Salah and Henry share the record for most wins with four apiece, while Shearer is the only player to claim the award in three consecutive seasons. Robin van Persie remains the only man to win back-to-back Boots with different clubs.
