Previous Winners (see Notes below)
The European Golden Boot has been awarded to the highest goalscorer in all the top European divisions each season since 1967/68. The Golden Boot was made unofficial from 1991 to 1996 following the 1990-91 Pancev affair which led to the suspension of the assegnation of the prize to the Yugoslav striker. It was reinstated in 1996. Since the 96/97 season the award has depended on a weighted system of points, with goals scored in leagues with a higher UEFA coefficient being worth more. For example, a 25-goal player from Serie A would have more points and so a higher ranking than a 25-goal player from the League of Wales. Before this, the award was given to Europe's top goalscorer, regardless of which league he participated in.
