The four players in the Premier League with the most Golden Boots are listed below:


4. Three golden boots for Alan Shearer


Shearer is the only player on the list who has never played for a major league side. Alan started his professional career with Blackburn Rovers, where he also finished with the most goals in the Premier League. Shearer was inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame as well. Unquestionably, he is the best striker to ever compete in the Premier League.


Between 1995 and 1997, Alan scored 112 goals for Blackburn Rovers and won three straight Golden Boot trophies. Shearer's 34 goals helped Blackburn Rovers win their lone Premier League championship in 1994. The next year, Shearer increased his total to 31 goals.

The following season, Shearer also had 31 goals. Shearer joined Newcastle United in 1996, and he scored 25 goals there for his third Golden Boot in the Premier League.

3. Mohamed Salah, three golden boots

Salah signed with Liverpool for a then-club record cost of £37 million. He wasn't held in high regard due to his catastrophic tenure at Chelsea in the past. Salah, however, disproved everyone after just one season with Liverpool. Mohamed established the record for the most goals (32) scored in a season. After this, many people argued that Salah was only a "one-season wonder." Since 2016, the Egyptian has scored 15+ goals per season, proving everyone incorrect. As of right now, the Liverpool winger has won three Premier League Golden Boot awards.

2. Harry Kane, three golden boots

One of the league's top strikers is an English player. Kane and Son Heung-min have routinely performed well for Tottenham Hotspur. In 2015-16, 2016-17, and 2020-21, Harry Kane earned the Premier League Golden Boot.

In the most recent award ceremony, Kane defeated Mohamed Salah by just one goal. In order to win the accolade in the 2020–21 season versus Leicester, he scored the game's first goal. Kane scored 23 goals in total during the year. In contrast, Salah was held scoreless as Liverpool defeated Crystal Palace.

Harry's passing and playmaking skills are really underappreciated. When Kane earned the Playmaker Award in the 2020–21 season, it was clear that this was effective. He scored 23 goals and made 14 assists.

1. Thierry Henry, four golden boots

Henry thrived at Arsenal while playing for the legendary Arsene Wenger. Henry has won four Premier League Golden Boot awards. One of the all-time best strikers in the Premier League was Thierry.

When he was only 25 years old, Thierry first won the Golden Boot in 2001. In the following seasons (2003–04, 2005–06, and 2006–07), he won the Golden Boot. In 2003, the same year he won the Golden Boot, Henry scored 30 goals, a career high.
