Top Contenders for the Premier League Golden Boot at the start of the 2019/20 season

#7 Jamie Vardy (England, Leicester City)

Jamier Vardy still is one of the most lethal strikers in the Premier League

Despite being 32 years old already, Jamie Vardy is still among the top goalscorers in the Premier League. The Englishman was heavily involved in the Golden Boot race last season and finished the year with 18 goals in the league from 34 appearances. His emergence in world football has been nothing short of a fairy tale and Vardy is still going strong right now. While expecting him to hit the form of the 2015/16 season might be too much, Vardy has scored more than 15 goals in both of the previous two seasons.

The Englishman is blessed with a poacher’s instinct and is extremely effective inside the box. He is a hard worker on the pitch and his relentless off the ball pressing can be a handful for most back line.

The Englishman ended last season on a high, scoring 11 goals in his last 13 games in the league. With the league becoming more and more competitive with each passing season, Jamie Vardy ensures that Leicester City will once again fight for a Europa League spot. The Englishman is 7th among the top contenders for the Premier League Golden Boot at the start of August.
