Every European Golden Shoe Winner

Can you name every player to receive the European Golden Shoe for scoring the most league goals throughout the season? Try the other quizzes in this series here!

A points system was introduced from the 1996/97 season.

This meant that each goal total was multiplied by a coefficent based on the subjective quality of the league.

Therefore, from this season onwards, the Golden Shoe was awarded to the player with the most points and not necessarily goals.

35+ is a solid score for the quiz.
