The talk surrounding the upcoming Euro 2028 tournament that will take place this summer in Germany beginning on June 14 is about who the runners and riders will be when it comes to winning the competition and who’s in the running to win the prestigious Golden Boot award. As you’ll expect, as well as winner odds, Euros top scorer odds are very popular in the run-up to and during a European Championships event, and every nation competing will be hoping they have the Golden Boot winner in their ranks.
In tournament football, as proven, any country that has someone who can score goals on a consistent basis, regardless of opposition, will have a chance of success. Games, especially beyond the group stages, often require teams to be clinical and to turn big moments into goals. Golden Boot candidates, usually strikers, are the ones who can make the difference in these moments, and it can be the difference between progressing and exiting a tournament. There have been multiple occasions where the Golden Boot winner has been a member of the team that has gone on to be victorious in the final, proving just how integral a goal-getter on form can be.
Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku ran out as the top scorer in Euro 2024 qualifying, and by some margin, too, with the Chelsea striker who spent this season on loan at Roma in Serie A bagging fourteen goals in total. He finds himself behind the likes of Mbappe, Kane, Ronaldo and even Jude Bellingham in the top scorer odds lists at present.
Unsurprisingly, it was Ronaldo who finished with the second-highest number of goals in qualifying, scoring on ten occasions. It adds further weight to the argument that the Portuguese striker, even though he’s forty next birthday, is still a serious threat and could transfer his form to the tournament itself.
Mbappe and Kane finished qualifying with nine and eight goals, respectively, so they were there or thereabouts, just as you’d expect them to be, and they once again proved they’re consistent goalscorers. It’s hard to look beyond Mbappe, Kane, Ronaldo and potentially even Lukaku when it comes to the Euro 2024 Golden Boot. They’re all in the running according to the odds, too, and their recent form at international level adds confidence.
For the first time in Euros history, only the goals mattered, and so assists and minutes played weren't taken into account. This meant there were 6 players tied for the Golden Boot award.
