Which Serie A top-scorer award did Cristiano Ronaldo win for the 2020-21 season?

Cristiano Ronaldo won the Capocannoniere award as Serie A’s leading scorer for the 2020–21 season.

Playing for Juventus, Ronaldo scored 29 league goals and finished top of the Serie A scoring table. He became the first player to finish as the leading scorer in England’s Premier League, Spain’s La Liga and Italy’s Serie A, completing a rare achievement across Europe’s major leagues.

“Capocannoniere” is the Italian term traditionally used for Serie A’s top scorer. It is not the same as the Pichichi Trophy, which honours La Liga’s leading scorer, or Spain’s Zamora Trophy, which is awarded to the best-performing goalkeeper. “Golden Boot” is a broad nickname used for many top-scorer prizes, but Capocannoniere is the canonical Italian award name.

Ronaldo’s 29 goals came in his third and final Serie A season with Juventus. Romelu Lukaku finished second with 24 goals, while Luis Muriel scored 22 for Atalanta. Inter Milan won the league title, but Ronaldo led the individual scoring standings.
