Erling Haaland Wins 3rd Premier League Golden Boot in four seasons
London, May 24
Erling Haaland has claimed the Premier League Golden Boot for the third time in four seasons after finishing the campaign with 27 goals, five clear of Igor Thiago of Brentford in second place.
It marks yet another prolific season for Manchester City's star striker, who has dominated the league's scoring charts since arriving in England in 2022, as per the Manchester City website.
Haaland netted a record-breaking 36 goals in his debut Premier League campaign before following it up with 27 goals the next season, and has now repeated that tally once again.
Only Thierry Henry and Mohamed Salah (four each) have ever won this award more times than Haaland, with Alan Shearer and Harry Kane also scoring three times.
He is the only player ever to win it more than once, with Carlos Tevez sharing the prize with Dimitar Berbatov in 2010/11 and Sergio Aguero hitting 26 in 2014/15.
Overall, Haaland has now scored an astonishing 112 goals in just 132 Premier League appearances, further underlining his remarkable consistency in front of goal.
The Manchester City striker became the fastest player in Premier League history to reach 100 goals in December 2025, achieving the milestone in only 111 matches,13 games fewer than previous record-holder Alan Shearer.

Thierry Henry and Mo Salah still ahead with four each - shows how special they were. But Haaland at just 24 is well on his way to break that record. The scary part? He's not even a complete striker yet - his link-up play and heading could improve. Scary thought for the rest of the league!
As an Indian football fan who stays up at 1 AM to watch these matches, Haaland is a treat to watch. But let's give credit where it's due - Kevin De Bruyne and the City midfield create so many chances for him. Take those assists away and his numbers might drop. Still, 112 goals in 132 games is insane consistency! 🏆
I'm not sure this is good for the Premier League long term. It's becoming the Haaland show - City win league, Haaland wins golden boot, rinse and repeat. Proper competition needs teams to challenge both City and this freak of nature. At 6'4" with that pace and finishing ability, it feels almost unfair!
The craziest stat is the 100 goals in 111 games - that's like a goal every match for over two seasons! As someone who grew up watching Messi and Ronaldo dominate, it's amazing to see a new superstar rise. Though I do wish Indian football could produce such world-class talent someday... 🇮🇳
Respect to Haaland but let's not forget Harry Kane and Mo Salah also won three each. Consistency at the highest level is what separates the greats from legends. Can he do it for 5-6 more seasons? Then we can talk about truly being among the
