Dani Olmo, Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala share UEFA Euro 2024 Golden Boot

17.07.2024

Dani Olmo, Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala shared the UEFA Euro 2024 Golden Boot with three other players after finishing the tournament on three goals.

Previously, assists have been used as a tie-break, which would have given RB Leipzig and Spain midfielder Olmo the award outright, but UEFA announced this year's would be decided on goals alone.

For a clear winner to take the prize, Olmo and/or Kane needed to score in the final, which neither did, as Spain beat England 2-1 in Berlin.

Cody Gakpo (Netherlands), Ivan Schranz (Slovakia) and Georges Mikautadze (Georgia) finished on the same three-goal tally.

Olmo scored his first goal of the finals as a substitute in the last-16 win over Georgia. He registered a goal and assist as a starter against tournament hosts Germany in the quarter-finals, before hitting the winner against France in the last four. His other assist fell against Albania in the groups.

Having racked up a league-leading 36 Bundesliga goals for Bayern Munich in 2023/24, England captain Kane scored against Denmark in the group stage, Slovakia in the last 16 and the Netherlands in the semi-finals. For his part, Bayern teammate Musiala struck twice in the groups and once in the knockouts.

Gerd Müller (four goals, 1972, West Germany), Dieter Müller (four goals, 1978, West Germany) and Klaus Allofs (three goals, West Germany, 1980) are the previous Bundesliga-based players to win the Golden Boot outright.

Mario Gomez and Mario Mandžukić (both 2012) and Patrik Schick (2020) were among the joint top scorers in past editions, but lost out on the prize on tie-breakers.
