Erling Haaland secured his third Premier League Golden Boot award after finishing the season with 27 goals. The Manchester City striker finished five clear of Brentford's Igor Thiago. Haaland previously claimed the award in 2022-23 with 36 goals and again in 2023-24 with 27. Only Thierry Henry and Mo Salah have won more Golden Boots than Haaland's three.

Haaland sits alongside Alan Shearer and Harry Kane with three Golden Boots. The Norway international has scored 112 goals in 132 Premier League appearances, becoming the fastest player to reach 100 goals in just 111 games—13 quicker than Shearer's previous record. Teammate Antoine Semenyo finished with 17 goals after joining from Bournemouth in January.

Ollie Watkins emerged as the top-scoring Englishman with 16 goals, including two in Aston Villa's final-day victory over City. Joao Pedro and Morgan Gibbs-White tied with 15 each, while Arsenal's Viktor Gyokeres and Leeds' Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored 14. With Salah leaving Liverpool, Haaland could equal his record next season.
