The 2024/25 La Liga season runs from August 15, 2024 through to the end of May 2025.
Alongside the quest to dethrone Real Madrid as champions, and the battle for European places — not to mention survival in the division — some individuals will be targeting glory via the Golden Boot award.
This prize, also known as the Pichichi in Spain, is awarded to the player who scores the most goals in the league season. In 2024/25, Girona striker Artem Dovbyk (now at Roma) emerged triumphant ahead of Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham, Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski, and Villarreal’s Alexander Sorloth, who now plays for Atletico Madrid.
However, a new name will be battling for the Golden Boot this season.
Madrid completed the signing of Kylian Mbappe in July after the France star left Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his contract, and the 2018 World Cup winner has put himself among the favourites to end this campaign with the most goals scored. Yet he’s trailing a revived Lewandowski who put himself well clear atop the standings with a brace in the stunning 4-0 El Clasico romp in late October, although his disastrous miss against Atletico Madrid in late December led to Sorloth’s historic winner.
The Jugo Mobile will be tracking the Golden Boot race in La Liga right until the final matchday.
