Full List of EPL 2025/26 Season Top Scorers, Most Assists, Golden Glove Winner

The 2025/26 Premier League season is officially done. Erling Haaland has his third Golden Boot. Bruno Fernandes has broken the all-time assist record. David Raya has won his third consecutive Golden Glove. Here’s the complete breakdown of who won what, and how the races actually unfolded.

2025/26 Premier League Golden Boot Winner: Erling Haaland

Erling Haaland finished the season with 27 goals in 35 appearances, enough to win the Premier League Golden Boot for the third time in four seasons. That puts him in a very short conversation with the greatest forwards this league has ever seen.

It wasn’t a clean sweep from start to finish, though. Haaland went through a rough stretch between Christmas and March, eight league games without an open-play goal at one stage, and the Golden Boot race genuinely felt open for a while. Then came an FA Cup hat-trick against Liverpool in early spring, followed by a vital winner against title rivals Arsenal, and something clicked back into place. He scored in five consecutive league matches heading into the final day: Bournemouth, Brentford, Everton, Burnley, and then against Arsenal again. Classic Haaland, coasts for a bit, then goes on a run that makes you forget there was ever any doubt.

His closest challenger, Brentford’s Igor Thiago, finished on 22 goals, a stunning debut full season in English football for the Brazilian. Thiago scored 41% of Brentford’s league goals this campaign, the highest share of any player for his club in the division. A costly missed-chances display against Manchester United in late April all but ended his Golden Boot hopes, but 22 goals at Brentford, in your first real PL campaign, is not something you apologise for.

Semenyo, who joined City from Bournemouth in January, contributed 16 goals across the campaign, 10 for Bournemouth before the move, then six more for City. Joao Pedro and Ollie Watkins are notable for a different reason: they are the only players in the top ten who didn’t score a single penalty all season. Every goal came from open play or set-pieces, which tells you something about both of them.

Golden Boot History: Where Does Haaland Stand Now?

With three Golden Boots, 2022/23, 2023/24 (a joint win with Mohamed Salah last term, no, wait, Salah won last season outright), let’s be precise: Haaland won in 2022/23, missed out in 2024/25 when Salah claimed his fourth, and has now won again in 2025/26. Three Golden Boots in four seasons is an absurd rate.

Salah’s four Golden Boots (2017/18, 2021/22, 2022/23 shared, and 2024/25) tie him with Thierry Henry for the most in Premier League history. Haaland is now at three, one behind the all-time record. He’s 24.

2025/26 Premier League Most Assists: Bruno Fernandes Breaks History

The assist story of this season is one for the record books, full stop.

Bruno Fernandes finished with 21 assists in 38 Premier League appearances, breaking the all-time single-season record that Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne had jointly held since 2019/20. He also scored eight goals, meaning he directly contributed to 29 of Manchester United’s league goals. In a campaign where United finished third and secured Champions League football, Fernandes was the engine room.

What makes the number even more extraordinary: his first assist of the season didn’t arrive until October 19. He set up Harry Maguire for the winner at Anfield, and then produced 20 more from that point on, at a rate of roughly 0.8 assists per game. The record-breaker came on the final day, a corner delivered perfectly for Patrick Dorgu to head home against Brighton. His United teammates mobbed him on the spot; they knew what had just happened.

Fernandes was named Premier League Player of the Season and FWA Footballer of the Year for 2025/26, and his 21-assist haul places him alongside Lionel Messi and Thomas Müller as the only players in European football’s top five leagues to reach that tally in a single season.

His closest assist rival all season was Manchester City’s Rayan Cherki, who finished on around 10 or 11. Fernandes had more than double the next best. That’s a genuinely unusual kind of dominance in a creative stat that typically gets spread around.

2025/26 Premier League Golden Glove Winner: David Raya

Arsenal’s David Raya won the Golden Glove for the third successive season, finishing with 19 clean sheets in 37 appearances, his best personal return since joining the Gunners from Brentford in 2023.

Three consecutive Golden Gloves is a feat only three other goalkeepers have managed in Premier League history: Pepe Reina (2006–08), Joe Hart (2011–13), and Ederson (2020–22). Raya is now in that group, and one away from equalling the four-award record shared by Petr Cech and Hart.

Manchester City’s Gianluigi Donnarumma was runner-up in his first English season with 15 clean sheets. England internationals Jordan Pickford and Dean Henderson, along with Bournemouth’s Djordje Petrovic, all finished on 11. The double-figure clean sheets group was rounded out by Caoimhin Kelleher, Robin Roefs, and Bart Verbruggen, each on 10.

Raya’s season was central to Arsenal’s title win. The Gunners conceded a league-best 27 goals from 38 matches, scored 71, and finished on 85 points, their first league title since 2003/04. The spine of that achievement was defensive, and the numbers bear it out: Raya went stretches of the season where Arsenal’s defensive record looked almost implausible.

The 2025/26 Playmaker Award: Also Fernandes

For completeness, the Coca-Cola Golden Playmaker award, given to the player with the most assists, also went to Fernandes. His 21-assist season broke the record previously shared by Henry and De Bruyne, and Fernandes takes the Playmaker prize for the first time in his career. Since the award launched in 2017/18, Kevin De Bruyne has won it three times and Mohamed Salah twice. Fernandes now has one, but the way he finished this campaign, it won’t be his last conversation with that trophy.

2025/26 Premier League Season Summary

Arsenal won the title. 85 points, 26 wins, 7 draws, 5 defeats. First championship in 22 years under Mikel Arteta.

Manchester City were runners-up on 78 points. Manchester United, galvanised by Fernandes, came third and secured Champions League football. Aston Villa finished fourth, just behind in the qualification spots.

At the bottom, Wolverhampton Wanderers (20 points) and Burnley (22 points) were relegated comfortably. The third relegation place went to West Ham (39 points), who couldn’t find consistency at any point in the campaign.
