England captain Harry Kane has been crowned the winner of the European Golden Shoe for the 2025/26 season after finishing as the continent’s leading league goalscorer.
Kane was rewarded for another outstanding campaign with Bayern Munich, where his goalscoring form continued to underline his status as one of Europe’s most prolific strikers.
According to beIN SPORTS, the 33-year-old secured the prestigious individual award after leading the scoring charts across Europe’s top domestic leagues.
The European Golden Shoe is presented annually to the player who scores the most goals in Europe’s leading domestic competitions, with Kane’s remarkable campaign earning him the prize.
Kane finished the season with 73 goals across club and country, including 12 goals for England.
His international tally matched his best return for the Three Lions since the 2021/22 campaign and further highlighted his consistency at the highest level.
The award adds another individual honour to Kane’s growing collection following an exceptional season with Bayern, where his goals played a major role in the club’s campaign.
Kane’s remarkable scoring record also strengthens his claim in the ongoing debate over the world’s best players and could prove significant in the race for other major individual awards this year.
