KEIR RADNEDGE REPORTS: Cristiano Ronaldo is racing back up the rankings in the ESM European Golden Shoe which he has won on four occasions.

Ronaldo converted two penalties at the weekend to take his tally to 10 goals in his last six games as Juventus beat Fiorentina 3-0. Matthijs de Ligt headed in a third in stoppage time.

Ronaldo has now scored in nine successive Serie A games for Juventus, the first player to do so since David Trezeguet in December 2005. He has claimed 50 goals in 70 appearances since joining them in 2018.

Ronaldo is now up to joint fourth in the ranking in which Lazio’s Ciro Immobile remains out in front.

No player from Serie A has won the Golden Shoe since Roma’s Francesco Totti with 26 goals in 2006-07.

As in previous years the Golden Shoe does not consider goals in play-off competitions.

Last season’s winner was Lionel Messi for a record-extending sixth time.
