Looking at the seven most elite leagues in the world and their current top goal scorers of this season, this read shows us what boots they have on their feet during matches.
Starting with England's Premier League, we of course have the Norwegian beast, Erling Braut Håland who wears Nike's Phantom GX model. These boots prioritise a great touch of the ball for wearers with their Nike Gripknit technology which is perfect for his fast-paced play style and beneficial for his clinical first-touch finishes which have been terrorising opponents in the world's most viewed league.
At the top of La Liga's goalscorers list is Robert Lewandowski who has previously been a trouble to defenders for many seasons in the Bundesliga and has now proven his adaptability coming into the highest-ranking Spanish league by outscoring any other player. As Barcelona's number 9, he's relied upon to provide goals for the team and with 17 goals scored so far in this La Liga season, Barcelona are currently sitting comfortably in first place of their table. Robert has worn a few Nike models throughout this season but was most recently seen wearing the Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 XXV in a fixture against Atlético Madrid.
Dominating this season's Bundesliga goalscorers list is Niclas Füllkrug who has managed to score 16 goals in 29 league matches for Werder Bremen who are currently battling in a mid-table position. He has been wearing the Nike Mercurial Vapor 14 Elite football boots which have propelled his explosive play style and ability to make clinical finishes look easy.
The Premier League is bound to introduce yet another Bundesliga goalscoring machine and, maybe as soon as next season, we may see Niclas in an Everton jersey.
At the top of the goalscoring list of Serie A is Victor Osimhen who has set Napoli a very comfortable position at the top of the league table. With 21 goals in 31 matches, he simply can't be stopped but his Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 boots make just as equal of a statement.
The top scorer in the French top division, Ligue 1, is Kylian Mbappé, a perfectly well-rounded goalscoring talent who also put on a show in the most recent World Cup Final.
The Nike Zoom Mercurial Superfly 9 XXV has been Kylian's boot of choice this season and thanks to his 22 league goals, this model has reached millions of eyes.
Moving over the Dutch Eredivisie, the top scorer is currently on 15 league goals. Playing for PSV, Xavi Simons has been clinical in keeping his club in a position that guarantees European football in the following season. He's the only player on this list to wear New Balance boots and his model of choice is an unreleased low-cut & laced variation of the Tekela V4.
Is it just a coincidence that the Nike Zoom Mercurial Vapor 15 is featured yet again on this list? This time it's the top scorer of the Portuguese Primeira Liga, João Mário that is wearing the model. He has worn other models since the start of the 2022/23 season, in which he has already scored 22 league goals with five games left to play, however, these have been his favoured boots, especially in recent times such as this past weekend's home victory against Estoril Praia.
