Premier League top goal scorers 2024/2025: EPL golden boot rankings as Salah closes on Haaland | Sporting News United Kingdom

The 2024/25 Premier League campaign is heating up and with that comes the opportunity for players to break records, score late winners or even bang in an overhead kick. 

Last season saw Erling Haaland yet again dominate the top scorers table, despite a mid-season injury. Cole Palmer, meanwhile, stunned the world as he surged to a second-place finish after a four-goal haul against Everton late in the season.

Haaland tops the charts, reaching 100 in all competitions for City by scoring against Arsenal, but his team’s recent struggles may have opened the door to closest challenger Mohamed Salah. His two goals helped Liverpool come from behind to win 3-2 at Southampton and a penalty as his rival drew a blank in Manchester City’s 2-0 defeat at Anfield left Salah one from the summit.

A surprise contender is Chris Wood, who got his ninth goal of the season on November 30 to give Nottingham Forest a win over Ipswich Town. Palmer is also making a challenge again: his record four-goal first-half feat against Brighton on September 28 saw him surge up the table amongst the leaders. Goals have been harder to come by since but he netted decisively from the penalty spot to sink Ipswich on November 30.

The Sporting News will be updating the table below during every matchday of the 2024/25 Premier League season through to the final matches on May 25, 2024.
