Harry Kane, the England and Bayern Munich forward, is set to receive the Golden Shoe award for finishing as the top scorer in European football for the 2025-26 season, according to reports citing Bayern Munich’s communications.

Both outlets say this will be Kane’s second Golden Shoe. Bayern’s official website is cited in one report, which frames the achievement as placing him among the select group of players to win the award twice. The other report similarly describes the honor as a prestigious recognition for the top European goalscorer and notes that Kane is the expected recipient for the 2025-26 season.

The coverage aligns on the core facts: the award’s basis (European top scoring in 2025-26), the recipient (Harry Kane), and that it is his second time receiving the Golden Shoe. One outlet adds context by comparing the tally of two Golden Shoes to the record held by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, who have won the award more times than any other player.
