Erling Haaland huge favorite for 3rd golden boot win

Part of City’s title victories in the last two seasons, former Borussia Dortmund striker, Erling Haaland exploded on the English game with a stunning 36 Premier League strikes, to go with a further 27 goals last season for the uber-talent.

And a third golden boot win this season in the Premier League would leave Haaland just one award away from former Arsenal hitman, Thierry Henry on 4 separate wins – and would see him tie Alan Shearer and Mohamed Salah on 3 golden boot triumphs. 

Striking on the opening game away to Chelsea, Haaland would then bury all three of City’s goals on the road once more against West Ham – before netting a stunning second straight hattrick at the Etihad Arena against Ipswitch Town,

And last weekend against Brentford – Erling Haaland would score another brace for the Citizens at home, bringing his Premier League tally to nine already inside just four appearances domestically. 

Far and ahead of every other player in the current race, despite his best efforts from the bench this season – including his thunderbolt against Everton, Jhon Duran is joint second with 3 goals alongside compatriot, Luis Diaz, as well as Noni Madueke, Bryan Mbuemo, the above-mentioned Salah, Yoane Wisse – who is tasked with replacing an Ivan Toney shaped hole for The Bees. 

While Salah has made a bright start to this season with 3 goals, the Egyptian forward is an outsider already in the golden boot race according to many odds, boasting 12/1 odds – while next best chance Ollie Watkins is even further down the list alongside AlexanderIsak – with the duo boasting 25/1 odds. 

Before Erling Haaland’s arrival in the league, the most recent golden boot award was shared between Salah and Tottenham forward, Heung Min-Son – with the South Korean striker struggling to find a direct dance partner amid the exit of Harry Kane – with Spurs splashing a large transfer kitty on Dominic Solanke this summer. 

And for a prior winner, Son – who also moved to the Premier League from the Bundesliga, is only landing odds as high as 35/1 at the time of publication to upset the applecart stacked by Haaland and land the golden boot come the culmination of the domestic season in May of next year.
