Premier League Golden Boot: Vardy leads Ings, Aubameyang, Salah and Sterling in top scorers race

PREMIER LEAGUE action concludes today and the Golden Boot will be decided.

Jamie Vardy leads the way but Danny Ings is also involved, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mo Salah and Raheem Sterling all in contention to win the prestigious award.

What is the Golden Boot award, and can it be shared?

The Premier League Golden Boot is an annual FA award that is presented to the highest goalscorer in the Premier League for that season.

In addition to the award, players are usually given £1,000 for every goal scored in order to donate to a charity of their choice.

Previous years have seen winners like Robin Van Persie, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Dwight Yorke.

Thierry Henry currently has the most Golden Boots, having won the award on four occasions.

If players are tied on the same amount of goals, like last season, the award is shared between the players.

Who is the Premier League’s top scorer this season?

1. Jamie Vardy (Leicester City)  23

2. Danny Ings (Southampton) 21

3. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Arsenal)  20
