Premier League Top Scorer 2023/24 Candidates

Erling Haaland (-200) at bet365

Erling Haaland announced his arrival to the Premier League with the loudest of bangs last season. The Manchester City striker broke numerous records, including the most goals in an English top-flight season since 1966/67 with 36. 

By his sky-high standards, Haaland has not been at his best this term. The Norway international’s all-round game has been criticised, while he has not been quite as efficient in front of goal. Still, Haalandis the favorite with 20 strikes to his name.

Cole Palmer (+350) at bet365

Cole Palmer has come from nowhere to rise to second spot in this betting market. The Chelsea sensation has scored seven times in his last two home games, including a spectacular four-goal haul in a 6-0 victory over Everton on Monday.

Remarkably, Palmer is now level with Erling Haaland on 20 goals. Winning the Golden Boot would represent a stunning achievement in his first proper season at this level.

Ollie Watkins (+600) at bet365

Ollie Watkins found the back of the net on Sunday as Aston Villa registered a surprise 2-0 victory over Arsenal. It was the 19th time Watkins has beaten an opposition goalkeeper since the beginning of 2023/24.

The Villa frontman is enjoying the best season of his career and he has every chance of overtaking Erling Haaland and Cole Palmer. Many will feel Watkins is fantastic value at +600.

Mohamed Salah (+1400) at bet365

Mohamed Salah was the second-favorite in this market for months, but his odds have plummeted to +1400 after a dip in form. Liverpool, who are chasing the Premier League title, need to get their star man back to his best.

Salah was quiet in a 1-0 defeat by Crystal Palace on Sunday. But given he is only three goals behind Erling Haaland and Cole Palmer, it would be a mistake to write the former Chelsea man off.

Alexander Isak (+1400) at bet365

Newcastle United have endured a terrible run with injuries this season, but they have at least managed to keep Alexander Isak fit in recent weeks. The Sweden international continues to impress as the line-leader for Eddie Howe’s side.

Isak is averaging a goal every 104 minutes, the best record of all the Golden Boot contenders. Like Mohamed Salah, he is three strikes off top spot as things stand, with Newcastle set to face Crystal Palace in their next game.

Who Was the Top Scorer Premier League 2023?

Erling Haaland was the top scorer in the 2022/23 season. The Manchester City striker scored 36 goals in 35 appearances, setting a new Premier League record in his debut campaign in the country.

Haaland also won the European Golden Shoe, as no player in Europe scored more goals than the Norway international last term.

Who Is the All-Time Premier League Top Scorer?

Alan Shearer is the all-time leading goalscorer in the Premier League, having scored 260 goals for Blackburn and Newcastle. The former England captain also scored 23 goals for Southampton in the First Division before it was rebranded as the Premier League.

Indeed, a different picture emerges when we also take the First Division era, from 1888 to 1992, into account alongside the 29 seasons of the Premier League.

Top of the overall charts is Jimmy Greaves, who found the back of the net 357 times for Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and West Ham United.
