The Golden Shoe is an accolade reserved for only one amid all the other Golden Boot awards across different domestic and European club competitions.
Robert Lewandowski's crown was snatched by Erling Haaland in the 2022-23 season, as the Norwegian bagged 36 goals from 72 appearances to help Manchester City to the treble. The likes of Harry Kane (30), Kylian Mbappe (29), Alexandre Lacazete (27) and Victor Osimhen (26) followed among the top five.
Haaland, Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappe and Lautaro Martinez were among the top candidates in the race to win the European Golden Shoe title for the 2023/24.
However, Bayern Munich's Harry Kane has emerged victorious in the battle for the European Golden Boot, having overperformed Serhou Guirassy, who led the charts for many of the season's early stages.
Here, GOAL brings you the exploits of the most prolific marksmen in European football.
