Premier League top goal scorers 2022-2023
Manchester City star Erling Haaland continues firmly entrenched at the top of the Premier League scoring table with his 26 goals in 23 games, as he continues his chase of league records. He already has more goals than every Premier League top scorer since 2017/18.
He needs just 9 goals in the 14 matches remaining to eclipse the mark of 34 goals scored in a single season by Andy Cole and Alan Shearer. Haaland has scored in all but eight of his 23 Premier League appearances to date.
The City striker has a sizable lead over Harry Kane (17 goals), who won the Golden Boot on three previous occasions. With a goal in eight of his last nine Premier League matches, Marcus Rashford is up to fourth on the list. Meanwhile, last season’s joint top scorers — Mohamed Salah (8 goals) and Son Heung-min (4 goals) — are well off the pace.
As was the case throughout last season, The Sporting News will update the top scorers’ table below, with assists and minutes played serving as the first and second tiebreakers as per major European tournaments run by UEFA.

Premier League odds to win Golden Boot
Who did the sportsbooks think was the frontrunner for the top scorer title in England at the start of the season? It was Haaland ahead of everyone else.
Previous winners Salah and Kane were considered to be in with a good shot, both ahead of their other star teammates Nunez (Liverpool) and Son (Tottenham).
Cristiano Ronaldo, who is still on the books at Man United but whose future at the club seems tenuous, clocked in with the seventh best odds to be the scoring king in England.
The biggest snubs by the betting market might be Diogo Jota (40/1) and West Ham newcomer Gianluca Scamacca (40/1).

Forest / Tottenham 22 Premier League Golden Boot table 2021/22
It came down to the final day of the 2021/22 season between Tottenham’s Son Heung-min and Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah. Son’s two goals at Norwich City on the final day allowed him to momentarily move ahead of Salah in the scoring table. But the Liverpool star came off the bench and netted late to catch Son, as the two stars shared the Golden Boot on 23 goals.
Cristiano Ronaldo (18 goals) was charging hard down the final stretch, but he ultimately came up short. Salah’s Liverpool’s teammates, Sadio Mane (16 goals) and Diogo Jota (15 goals), finished even further behind. And Manchester City had eight players with seven or more goals on the list. Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy, who were the previous two Golden Boot winners, were also top 10 finishers.
