Euro 2016: 6 contenders for the golden boot

2) Robert Lewandowski

Lewandowski over the years has proven time and time again why he is one of the best strikers in the world. He made his name in Borussia Dortmund helping them to and league and cup double.

He was one of Bayern Munich's biggest transfer coups after he let his contract run down at Dortmund and moved to the Bavarians on a free. The Pole has only gone on to become even better since his move.

Lewandowski was in blistering form for Poland in the qualifying rounds netting an incredible 13 times for his country as they finished second behind Germany in the qualifying group.

They even managed to defeat the mighty Germans en route to qualifying and only lost once in 10 games. They only finished a point behind their rivals in the qualifying stage but will have another crack at them after being seeded in the same group for the tournament.

Poland can be considered dark horses for the competition and having already beaten Germany once will fancy their chances to make it far in the competition. A lot will rest on the scoring prowess of Lewandowski but having done it so many times in the past there is no doubt he will be at it again in France.
