Premier League Top Goals Scorers 2023-2024 Archives

Premier League top scorers 2023-24: Erling Haaland, Mohamed Salah & the race for the Golden Boot.

Supersports24 brings you all of this season’s leading marksmen from England’s top flight

– who will come out on top?

The race is once again on for a coveted Premier League Golden Boot, with established superstars set to battle it out for the prestigious crown of the English top-flight’s leading goal scorer.

Erling Haaland stands heads and shoulders – figuratively, literally – above his Premier League colleagues in the top scorer stakes for the 2023/2024 season. He has to be, he was that lethal in front of goal last season as the Norwegian hitman set a new single-season Premier League goals record (36 goals) en route to the Golden Boot award in 2022/2023.

Runner-up Harry Kane who, in most other years, would have walked away with the crown last time out after netting 30 strikes, has left Spurs for German giants Bayern Munich, so it will be interesting to see who Haaland will face for the Golden Boot in 2023/2024.

Man United’s Marcus Rashford, who rediscovered his scoring boots last season, Newcastle United’s pair (Callum Wilson, Alexander Isak), and a host of potent attackers at Liverpool (Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo) or Arsenal (Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli) are all good shouts.

With nets set to bulge on a regular basis throughout the 2023-2024 campaign, SuperSports24 is on hand to record the exploits of the most prolific marksmen around.

1Erling Haaland | Manchester City | 14 goals

Erling Haaland made last season’s top-scorer battle one of the most boring Golden Boot races in Premier League history.

The Norwegian colossus ended on 36 league goals from 35 matches in 2022/23, registering four separate hat-tricks, making an absolute mockery of those who said he would need time to acclimatise to life in England last season.

The Norse titan is in a league of his own and has shown no signs of slowing down in the 2023-24 campaign. Unless he suffers an unfortunate injury or Guardiola drops him to the bench for an extended period, Haaland will likely be the division’s leading hitman next year.

2Mohamed Salah | Liverpool | 12 goals

While Mohamed Salahstill managed an impressive 19 goals last season in spite of Liverpool’s sluggish form, the Egyptian did not reach his customary heights of brilliance. He will be desperate to improve his and the Reds’ fortunes this season.

3. Jarrod Bowen | West Ham United | 11 goals

With Rice off to north London, a new star must emerge for the Hammers and the onus will once again be on Conference League hero Jarrod Bowen in the final third.

A goal-scorer and creator who always gives his team a chance in attacking transitions, his sparkling displays were a key reason why West Ham finished last season in fine form, and lifted their first European title since 1965 in the form of Europa Conference League

4.Dominic Solanke | Bournemouth | 11 goals

Dominic Solanke registered a brilliant 13 goal contributions in the top flight last season, standing out as one of the Cherries’ best-performing players as Bournemouth secured survival with relative ease.

5.Son Heung-min | Tottenham Hotspur | 11 goals

Following a 23-goal season in which he shared the Golden Boot with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, the South Korean produced only 10 goals, and six assists in an underwhelming season last time out. The arrival of former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou – who plays an expansive brand of football– and the addition of creative midfielder James Maddison means Son is steadily getting back to his best, which is vital for Spurs as he will have to carry much of the scoring burden after Harry Kane’s exit.

6Ollie Watkins | Aston Villa | 9 goals

Ollie Watkins has consistently impressed for the Lions over the past three seasons. The England international has been a key figure in Villa’s revival under Unai Emery and has been revived since the Spaniard succeeded Steven Gerrard in October last year.

He scored 15 goals in the Premier League last season, with his efforts helping Unai Emery’s side qualify for the Europa League. He has started this campaign in great form too, and he’ll hope to keep that up.

7Hwang Hee-chan | Wolves | 8 goals

Hwang Hee-chan moved to the Premier League in January last year as Wolves snapped him up in a £14 million deal from RB Leipzig. For all his versatility, tenacity, speed, and mobility he has largely struggled to deliver the goods in the final third.

8. Callum Wilson | Newcastle | 7 goals

At 31 years old, most strikers begin a perilous fall in goal tallies and performances, but Callum Wilson has looked evermore reliant, emphasising that age is just a number. With 18 goals to his name the former Bournemouth poacher flourished in his most prolific Premier League season to date last time out, he will be hoping to continue firing on all cylinders this season.

9. Nicolas Jackson | Chelsea | 7 goals

Chelsea’s summer signing Nicolas Jackson may not be a household name, but he has emerged himself as one of the most exciting attacking talents in Europe after his breakout season at Villarreal in 2022-23 that saw him score 13 goals and provide five assists in 38 appearances.

A raw and talented forward, he has the ability to link play, run in behind and beat players with a blistering pace. Topped off with excellent poaching and finishing skills, he looks set to star for Chelsea up top this season.
