Premier League 2018/19: 5 Top Contenders for the Golden Boot

Cardiff City v Arsenal FC - Premier League
Aubameyang would want to put his slow start behind him

1. Sergio Aguero (Manchester City)

Manchester City v Southampton - Premier League
Aguero looks primed to land a second Golden Boot

The Argentinian is the highest ever goal-scorer for his club, Manchester City and has won the Golden Boot once previously.

Aguero has started the season on fire and has already made the net bulge on three occasions. He had a stellar season last time as well and rippled the net on 21 occasions on City’s march to the title.

Manchester City have set the ball rolling with impressive performances in the first few weeks of the season. They show no signs of stopping and are expected to produce exhilarating football on a weekly basis again. With City not sacrificing their attacking philosophy, Aguero would get his plethora of chances. With Aguero being an ace finisher, all signs point to another goal-laden season for the Argentine.

Over the years, Aguero has seemed to put his injury issues to bed and looks primed for a full-fledged season. In addition to this, the acquisition of Mahrez provides more creative ammunition for Aguero to fire.

Hence, for these reasons, Aguero looks the most likely suspect to capture the coveted prized when the season nears its conclusion.
