Son who is the first Asian to win the Premier League’s Golden boot scored twice in Tottenham’s 5-0 triumph against Norwich City, while Salah scored late for Liverpool against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Salah’s strike, however, was not enough to give Liverpool the Premier League title when Manchester City overcame Aston Villa 3-2 after coming back from two goals down.

Pep Guardiola’s side wins the Premier League title by a single point.

With 10 goals in the first nine games of Liverpool’s season, the Liverpool attacker has made an immediate impact.

Since returning from Egypt’s Africa Cup of Nations service, he’s had a bit of a downturn, scoring seven goals in 15 games since February.

He has only three goals in his past nine games, two of which came in a 4-0 win over Manchester United last month.

With 18 goals in his first season back in the Premier League, Cristiano Ronaldo is in third place.

Son has been in sensational form for Tottenham in recent months, netting 14 goals in his past 14 games.

The South Korean international has already exceeded his previous highest-scoring season with Spurs, which was 17 goals in 2020-21.

The accolade was formerly held by Harry Kane, but Salah has already won it twice in the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons.
