The 2024/25 La Liga season will run from August 15, 2024, to the end of May 2025.
As well as trying to dethrone Real Madrid as champions and fighting for European places - not to mention survival in the division - many individuals will aim for glory via the Golden Boot award.
This award, also known as the Pichichi in Spain, is given to the player who scores the most goals during the league season. In 2024/25, Girona striker Artem Dovbyk (now at Roma) triumphed over Madrid star Jude Bellingham, Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski, and Villarreal's Alexander Sorloth, who now plays for Atlético Madrid.
However, a new name will fight for the Golden Boot this season. Real Madrid completed the signing of Kylian Mbappé last July after the French star left Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his contract. The 2018 World Cup winner has placed himself among the favorites to finish this season with the most goals scored. However, it followed a resurgent Lewandowski, who moved to the top of the table with two braces in a stunning 4-0 El Clasico at the end of October.
