With the 2026-27 Premier League campaign about to get underway, GOAL counts down the leading contenders for the Golden Boot, including current holder Erling Haaland.

Michael Owen has hit out at Manchester United’s recruitment strategy, suggesting the Red Devils made a massive mistake by not signing Joao Pedro before his big-money move to Chelsea. The former United striker believes the Brazilian forward possesses qualities that the Old Trafford side have lacked for several seasons.

Reece James has admitted that he still has "rust" to shake off despite making a successful return to action in Chelsea's final pre-season friendly. The Blues captain featured in the 3-1 victory over Real Sociedad at Stamford Bridge, but he warned that the squad is still finding its rhythm under new management.

Manchester City are refusing to cool their interest in Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez despite missing the deadline to make a bid, with the Blues having set a £120m asking price for the Argentina international. Chelsea had given City until 5pm last Friday to make an offer, but no bid was submitted as Enzo Maresca’s side continue to explore midfield reinforcements before the transfer window closes.
