Premier League Golden Boot 2025/26 race

Erling Haaland fell short in his attempt to win three Golden Boots in his first three Premier League seasons but has made a fast start to the new campaign.

He's opened up an early lead with three goals in three games while 15 players have two strikes to their name so far.

The likes of Viktor Gyokeres, Joao Pedro, Richarlison, Hugo Ekitike, and Chris Wood will hope to extend their challenge when the Premier League returns in mid-September.

Alexander Isak split Haaland and Salah in last season's top scorer charts but he is playing catch-up after spending the opening weeks of the campaign on the sidelines in an ultimately successful attempt to force a move to Liverpool.
