MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester City striker Erling Haaland won the Golden Boot as top scorer in the Premier League on Sunday for the third time in his four seasons in English football.
The Norway international didn’t feature at all in City’s final game of the campaign — a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa — and finished on 27 goals, five more than Brentford striker Igor Thiago in the list of top scorers.
No other player in the league reached 20 goals.
Haaland was also the top scorer in the 2022-23 season (36 goals) and 2023-24 season (27 goals). Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah won the Golden Boot last season with 29 goals.
Haaland is heading to his first World Cup with Norway this summer.
