Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has been a constant feature in the top 10 of the European Golden Shoe race since the beginning of the season. The Egyptian has not been as explosive as he was last season, but he isn’t doing too badly either.

Salah boasts 17 goals in the Premier League, representing 34 points and also seven assists to his name.

With 10 games until the end of the league, and with Liverpool challenging for the title, Salah is sure to get on the score sheet more times in the coming weeks.

Europe has a new kid on the block and his name is Krzysztof Piatek. The Polish striker is gradually developing into one of Europe’s most feared forwards due to his potency in front of goal.

He comes 5th on the list of highest scoring players in Europe this season with 18 goals, constituting 36 points on the European Golden Shoe index.

Piatek was scoring for fun while with Genoa and has continued with his scoring run since joining AC Milan during the January transfer window.
