Thanks to the 36 goals that he scored last season in La Liga, Messi was also able to persue a trophy also chased by Frenchman Kylian Mbappe , although the PSG attacker only scored 33 goals.
Messi, with six Golden Boot's already, is the player who has received this recognition most times, whilst the second is Cristiano Ronaldo, with four and behind them is a large list of player's with two Golden Boots, amonst them, Luis Suarez.
Messi, in the 2011/12 season, when he received the trophy for the second time, set the scoring record with 50 goals. The Argentine player also won the Golden Boot in the following seasons: 2009/10, 2011/12, 2012/13, 2016/17, 2017/18 and 2018/19.
As has become customary in recent years, Messi will receive the trophy at the former Damm Brewery in Barcelona, an event which he will attend with his family, and where Barca will also attend with an expedition expected to be led by its president, Josep Maria Bartomeu.
