Winning the European Golden Shoe once is a major achievement. Winning it more than once puts a player in an exclusive club.
The annual award recognises the leading scorer across Europe’s top-flight leagues using a weighted points system, with goals in higher-ranked leagues carrying greater value.
In the award's almost 60-year history, only a handful of footballers have ever won multiple Golden Shoes.Harry Kane became the latest name to join the list in 2025/26, following a prolific campaign at Bayern Munich.
The 33-year-old scored 36Bundesliga goals for the German champions, earning a second Golden Shoe and becoming the first Englishman to win the award more than once.
Kane will be a frontrunner again this season, though is sure to face fierce competition from the likes of Raphinha, Erling Haaland, and Kylian Mbappe.
Lionel Messi leads the way with six European Golden Shoes, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo with four. They are the only players to have won the award more than twice
