#1 Lionel Messi (Argentina, Barcelona) 🢀 🢂
Goals Scored - 34
Trending
With 34 goals from 32 games this season, Messi remains the front runner for La Liga Golden Boot once again this season. The Barcelona skipper is almost certain to win a record-equaling 6th Golden Boot by the end of the season and is also the front runner for the European Golden Boot. He has been a true leader for the Barcelona side this season and has masterfully guided them to the league title again.
However, Messi had a less than average month of April, where he scored three goals from five games, which included three substitute appearances. With Barcelona also competing for the UEFA Champions League, it is understandable that Ernesto Valverde wanted to rest his talisman. But Messi did come off the bench to save his team twice in April, against Villareal at the start of the month and against Levante last weekend.
The Argentinean is miles ahead of the competition in Spain, and is averaging a goal every 74 minutes played. At the start of May, Lionel Messi looks destined to win another La Liga Golden Boot by the end of the season.
