May 26 According to Spanish media eldesmarque, Mbappe won the La Liga and European Golden Boot Awards with 31 goals this season, which is also the re-winning of the European Golden Boot Awards by La Liga players after five years.

As the league season is approaching its end, teams are reaping the results of their efforts throughout the season. Some teams celebrate winning the championship, while others celebrate to qualify for European competitions or successfully relegation.

This celebration is not only reflected in the team level, but also in personal honor. While Real Madrid hasn't won any major title this season, they can be proud of Mbappe's European Golden Boot Award. He performed well in the competition with Jocores and Salah, and eventually secured the victory with a brace against Real Sociedad.

A few years ago, it was common to see La Liga players win the Golden Boot Award. However, in recent seasons, the honor has gradually spread to other European leagues as many big-name stars leave.

Kane became the winner of the last European Golden Boot Award with 36 goals when playing for Bayern, the same number as Haaland scored for Manchester City in the 2022/23 season. Previously, Lewandowski won the European Golden Boot Award with 35 goals and 41 goals in 2022 and 2021, when he was still playing for Bayern. In the season when the epidemic was raging, Lazio's Immobile defeated the heroes with 36 goals and won the European Golden Boot Award.

No La Liga player has won the Golden Boot Award for five consecutive years, and until today, after the Liverpool game, Mbappe officially became the winner of this honor. However, La Liga has an absolute advantage in this honor until 2020.

Messi, Ronaldo and Suarez won the Golden Boot Award for almost a full decade during their La Liga. Messi won the Golden Boot Award six times, in 2010, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2018 and 2019, and he scored 50 goals in a single season when he won the second prize.

Ronaldo won the Golden Boot three times during his time at Real Madrid, in 2011, 2014 and 2015. He shared the 2014 Golden Boot Award with Suarez, who was still at Liverpool at the time.

But Suarez was not willing to be outdone after moving to La Liga, beating two all-time top scorers in the 2015/16 season. Before Messi and Ronaldo, then Atletico Madrid player Fran won the Golden Boot Award with 32 goals in 2009.
