France’s Kylian Mbappe is the betting favorite to win the Golden Boot at the 2024 UEFA European Championship
Unsurprisingly, France forward Kylian Mbappe is the betting favorite to win the Golden Boot at Euro 2024. He had a poor showing with zero goals and one assist in four games at Euro 2020. However, the new Real Madrid man won the Golden Boot at the 2022 World Cup, so there’s no reason to worry about his performances on the international stage.
Mbappe has +470 odds to be the tournament’s top goalscorer.
England No. 9 Harry Kane is the only other player with odds shorter than 10/1 to win the tournament’s Golden Boot. He was the top scorer at the 2018 World Cup, finding the back of the net six times. The Three Lions’ all-time leading goalscorer has netted six times at subsequent tournaments (four at Euro 2020 and two at the 2022 World Cup). He’s got +550 odds to bring home the award again.
Euro 2020’s Golden Boot winner, Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, has the joint-third-best odds to retain his spot atop the scoring charts. The 39-year-old will be looking to get back into goalscoring form after he found the back of the net just once at the latest World Cup. Ronaldo’s +1400 odds are level with Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku.
Jude Bellingham and Havertz have the next-best odds at +2400. Both enjoyed fantastic seasons with Real Madrid and Arsenal respectively. The Englishman and German tallied 20+ goal contributions in their leagues, and oddsmakers expect them to carry that fine form over to international duty.
France’s all-time leading scorer, Olivier Giroud, is +2700 to win the Golden Boot. His teammate, Antoine Griezmann, Spain’s Alvaro Morata, England’s Phil Foden and Germany’s Niclas Fullkrug are the only other players with 30/1 odds or shorter to win the award.
Here are the Euro 2024 Golden Boot odds (up to 50/1) at FanDuel Sportsbook as of Tuesday, June 11, 2024:
