Some soccer awards this year, such as the Ballon d'Or, have been canceled taking into account that this has been a catastrophic year, both for people's physical and economic health. So much so that the organizers of the Ball, France Football, recognizing the futility of delivering the award this year said that: “such a unique year cannot, and should not, be treated as an ordinary year. When in doubt, it is better to abstain than to persist.”

Despite this some, awards persist. Let's see then who are the candidates to receive the Golden Boot this year.

Robert Lewandowski

Lewandowski has had a phenomenal season and leads the list for this position, with his 34 goals this season for Munich. His incredible performance in the last Bundesliga would also have qualified him to win the Ballon d'Or.

 

Ciro Immobile

Tied with Lewandowski, Immobile scores 34 goals with his club Lazio, who classify him as a contender in this competition. It should be noted that according to transfermarkt, Immobile had a 53 percent participation in his team's goals, which is also an important figure.
