Just one goal in it between Gyokeres and Salah in European Golden Shoe showdown
KEIR RADNEDGE REPORTS: Viktor Gyokeres and Mo Salah in the final weeks of the western European season and their duel to win the ESM European Golden Shoe.
Sporting Lisbon’s Gyokeres, who tops the wanted list of several English Premier League clubs, leads Salah by one point thanks to his 38 goals thus far this term. This is remarkable notable because players in Portugal benefit from a points multiplier of only 1.5.
Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe is now third ahead of Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski and Bayern Munich’ new German champion Harry Kane.
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.
