Salah vs Gyokeres: Two Goals Away from a Historic Golden Boot Win

Mohamed Salah's on the brink of history as he edges closer to winning the 2025 European Golden Boot , a feat no Egyptian player's ever achieved.

Who Leads the Race?

Currently Salah sits second with 56 point having netted 28 Premier League goals this season , tied with France’s Kylian Mbappe of Real Madrid.

At the top is Viktor Gyokeres, the Swedish striker for Sporting CP who finished the Portuguese league season with 39 goal & 58.5 point.

What Salah Needs to Win

With 2 PL matches remaining against Brighton (Monday) &Crystal Palace (25 May) Salah needs 2 more goals to leapfrog Gyokeres.

In Europe’s top 5 leagues every goal counts for 2 point, unlike Portugal where each goal is worth 1.5 points.

Gyokeres Done for the Season

Sporting have already wrapped up the Portuguese league meaning Gyokeres can no longer add to his tally.

Near Miss in 2018

Salah came close in 2017 - 2018 scoring 32 goal, just two short of Lionel Messi who claimed the award that year.

Now with two games to go, Salah stands just one step away from writing his name in european football history.
