The 2026 World Cup is over, and so is the race for the prestigious Golden Boot - the award given to the tournament's top scorer. With the expanded 48-nation tournament coming to a close, following a month of thrilling action in North America, which star has taken home the illustrious award? Here, GOAL lists the tournament's most prolific performers.

New Croatia head coach Slaven Bilic has made Luka Modric his first priority in the role, revealing plans to speak with the veteran midfielder about his international future as he looks to convince the AC Milan captain to continue representing his country.

Luka Modric is reportedly ready to extend his stay at San Siro by committing to a new one-year contract with AC Milan. The veteran midfielder has rapidly weighed up his options following Croatia’s disappointing early departure from the 2026 World Cup just a few days ago.

The Croatian Football Federation (HNS) has officially announced the return of Slaven Bilic as the head coach of the senior national team. The former West Ham United and West Bromwich Albion manager ends a two-year break from the dugout to succeed Zlatko Dalic, who stepped down following the conclusion of the 2026 World Cup.
