Not much time separates us from the start of the greatest football league in the world, and along with it comes some of the world’s top goal scorers.
The extreme competitiveness of the Premier League ensures that the best goal scorers on the planet give it their all and produce some magical football moments for the fans. Each season, one player is crowned the top goal scorer of the season and wins the Golden Boot.
Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah raced away with the award last season with 29 goals to his credit, also enabling his team to win the Premier League trophy. We at Essential Football asked Artificial Intelligence (ChatGPT) to make its predictions for the top goal scorers in the Premier League for the 2025/26 season, and the results were as follows –
Erling Haaland
Manchester City’s striker leads the predictions charts with 32 goals to its credit.
After a 30+ goal season leading City’s attack, it will be difficult to see Pep Guardiola not lift the league title again. Haaland finished the previous season in third place with 22 goals to his name.
Mohamed Salah
The Egyptian attacker has mesmerised the Premier League audiences with his scintillating performances. This season, too, Salah will be taking charge in front of goal at Anfield and will end the season with as many as 27 goals to his credit.
Salah and Haaland will be entrenched in an intensive goal-scoring battle if we have to believe AI.
Alexander Isak
The most wanted man this summer will once again be lighting up the Premier League with thunderous displays in front of goal.
The Swedish striker will score 26 goals this season. It remains to be seen if these goals will be scored for Newcastle United or Liverpool – Isak is determined to make a move to Anfield.
Viktor Gyokeres
Moving from one in-demand man to another, Gyokeres’ arrival a few weeks ago marked the moment Arsenal fans could cheer and celebrate.
The player is expected to hit the ground running in the Premier League immediately and will end the season with 22 goals to his name.

The new summer signing at Stamford Bridge is a surprise inclusion in this list made by ChatGPT.
The artificial intelligence software predicts that the Brazilian forward will be a lethal force for Enzo Maresca upfront and will make his way onto the scoresheet on at least 18 occasions.
Manchester United fans will be disappointed Benjamin Sesko is not in the top 5 but if his record with Leipzig is any indication then maybe he will gatecrash the top 5 not to mention Liverpool’s Hugo Ekitike.
