#5 Golden boot race gets even hotter
Mohammed Salah, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, Harry Kane, Eden Hazard and Sergio Aguero have all been top or joint top scorers at one point or another this season. It has been interesting to watch the EPL strikers battle it out to see who could earn the award.
Sergio Aguero has suddenly become the favourite for the much coveted individual award after his great scoring form. The Argentine sits top of the pile right now with 18 goals to his name. Salah (17), Aubameyang (16) and Kane (15) remain his closest challengers for the top prize. However, Mane, Hazard, Lacazette and Sterling are only a few goals behind and cannot be written off in the race for the Golden Boot.
Kane made a goal scoring return last weekend after recovering from his injury sustained during Tottenham's loss to Manchester United at Wembley. However, he was unable to add to his tally in the match against Chelsea. With Kane returning ahead of schedule, Aubameyang, Aguero and Salah all in great form, we are in for one of the most keenly contested Golden Boot races in recent years.
