Bayern Munich star Harry Kane wins the Golden Shoe award for the second time

German sports magazine Kicker announced on Tuesday that Harry Kane, the Bayern Munich striker, won the Golden Boot award for the best scorer in the European football leagues last season.

Kane topped the list with 72 points thanks to his scoring 36 goals in the German Bundesliga, ahead of Norwegian Erling Haaland, the Manchester City player, who scored 27 goals in the English Premier League to score 54 points.

In third place was Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid star, who scored 27 goals in the Spanish League, collecting 50 points.

The England national team captain won this prestigious award for the second time after receiving it for the first time in 2024, noting that Harry Kane was the top scorer in the German League in his three seasons with Bayern Munich.

Players in the five major leagues in Europe, namely England, Spain, Germany, Italy, and France, get two points for each goal due to the strong competition in these leagues.

Players in leagues ranked from 6 to 22 receive only 1.5 points per goal, while players in lower leagues receive a point per goal.

Dion Belgo, the Croatian Dinamo Zagreb player, is the highest ranked player outside the five major European leagues, as he came fourth with 46.5 points thanks to his 31 goals.
