Erling Haaland: Manchester City forward wins PFA men's Player of the Year award

Norway forward Erling Haaland, 23, scored 52 goals in all competitions in his debut season with Pep Guardiola's side.

Haaland beat team-mates Kevin de Bruyne and John Stones, Arsenal's Saka and Martin Odegaard and Tottenham's Harry Kane, now at Bayern Munich.

City won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League last season.

Erling Haaland joined City from Borussia Dortmund in a deal worth £51.2m in June 2022.

He was also nominated for the young player prize, which was awarded to England winger Saka after he scored 14 goals and contributed 11 assists in his finest season for the Gunners.

The 21-year-old beat fellow nominees Moises Caicedo, who recently joined Chelsea from Brighton, Aston Villa midfielder Jacob Ramsey, Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli and Brighton striker Evan Ferguson.

Meanwhile, both winners of the individual prizes were also included in the PFA Team of the Year.

Aston Villa striker Rachel Daly won the PFA women's Player of the Year award, while Chelsea's Lauren James was named Young Player of the Year.

Despite being eligible and on the shortlist, Haaland failed to win the award for Young Player of the Year; that award went to Arsenal star Bukayo Saka. However, winning the main prize means that City have now claimed it three times in the last four years after Kevin De Bruyne's double in 2020 and 2021.

The dominance of the Blues was also seen in the PFA Team of the Year, which was filled with no less than five City stars from their title- and Treble-winning team. Alongside Haaland, De Bruyne made it in as well as Ruben Dias, Rodri, and John Stones.

Who is leading the 2024-25 European Golden Boot race? | sportzpoint.com

The European leagues are up and running and we have already witnessed some great encounters between the top European teams. The hunt to win the European Golden Boot is also taking shape for the 2024-25 season.

Some big names from the Top five European leagues are already in full swing and they are scoring loads of goals to clinch the coveted annual award for the highest goalscorer in Europe. However, some young and talented players have enlisted themselves in the charts as well; even from outside of the top five European leagues.

According to the coefficient rankings updated by UEFA on 7 November 2024, the top five European Leagues are the English Premier League, Serie A (Italy), LaLiga (Spain), Bundesliga (Germany), and French Ligue 1 respectively. 

Sportzpoint brings you all the details about the leading goalscorers in the top five European leagues, details of the UEFA League ranking, and the leading goalscorers competing for the 2024-25 European Golden Boot.

The European Golden Boot Race

The Golden Boot is awarded by European Sports Media (ESM) which is a unified association of Football Magazine publications such as Marca, Kicker, La Gazzetta dello Sport, Frankfurter AZ, etc. They took over since 1996-97 season and started a new ranking system based on the position of the league for the respective players. 

The UEFA coefficient ranking is considered a measure for weighting points, with the principle being to acknowledge players who score in leagues of higher quality according to rankings, which makes it tougher to find the back of the net.

The number of goals scored in the top five leagues of Europe are counted with a multiplier of two, while those from leagues ranked six to 21 receive a 1.5 multiplier, and goals from all other leagues are counted as one.

This is how the points system works. 

Before looking at the players' list, here is the official UEFA ranking of league coefficients:

Hat-Tricks from Historic Clubs:

Aston Villa-12 Premier League Hat-tricks:

Dwight Yorke: was someone who always backed up his smile with a clinical finish.

Gabriel Agbonlahor:  had a stunning turn of pace, his bursts from the back often leaving defenders trailing hopelessly in his wake.

Striking the ball so fiercely reflects both the immense power underlying his well-timed shots and their accuracy too.

Regardless of spells spent in lower divisions, Aston Villa's long-held tradition of superior combat produces continuous effective results in front of the goal.

Leeds United-12 Premier League Hat-Tricks 

Leeds United is all action, high-tempo football, and die-hard fans.

Mark Viduka: had his moment of glory when he scored four against Liverpool and scored four against them.

Harry Kewell: had a left foot that could conjure up moments of magic.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink: was a man born of the wind, hitting the ball as clean and as hard as anyone.

Leeds is back in the Premier League now, and it is still in its attacking mode, and more hat-tricks are probably in its future.
