Gyokeres maaintains his lead over Salah in European Golden Shoe chase
LONDON: Mohamed Salah, after going goalless in Liverpool’s 3-1 Premier League defeat at Chelsea, remains in second spot in the rankings for the ESM European Golden Shoe.
Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyökeres leads with 38 goals in the Portuguese league. The Swedish attack leader is reportedly a summer transfer target for both Arsenal and Manchester United. His achievement in overtaking Salah is all the more notable because players in Portugal benefit from a points multiplier of only 1.5.
Barcelona’s Robert Ldewandowski is third with Bayern Munich’ new German champion Harry Kane and Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe joint fourth.
Marksmen from the Big Five (England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain) benefit from a points multiplier of two. Players such as Gyokeres in leagues between places six and 22 of the UEFA national ranking 2022 receive a 1.5 coefficient.
As in former years the ranking does not include play-offs or cup matches in the official ranking.
