Premier League top goal scorers 2022-2023: Updated golden boot rankings as Haaland nears record
Manchester City star Erling Haaland is now just two goals away from setting a new Premier League single-season record. He has 33 goals with seven more matches remaining to eclipse the record of 34 scored in a single Premier League season by Andy Cole and Alan Shearer.
Haaland has already surpassed Mohamed Salah’s record (32 goals) for most goals in a 38-match Premier League season. Cole and Shearer hit for 34 goals in a 42-match season, but Haaland can still break their record, too, despite playing in a season with four fewer scheduled matches.
The City striker has a nine-goal lead over Harry Kane (24 goals), who won the Golden Boot on three previous occasions. Ivan Toney is now just one shy of the 20-goal mark, while last season’s joint top scorer Mohamed Salah has slowly risen up the ranks to fourth.
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 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.
