Emmanuel Osoro faces a herculean task to win the golden boot award this seasn but the Talanta FC striker is bullish about his chances.

Golden boot-chasing Emmanuel Osoro believes he is in a better position to win the coveted award after pipping his closest challengers.

The prolific Talanta striker leapfrogged Kakamega Homeboyz Moses Shumah and by two goals after his double against Tusker took his season tally to 18 goals.

Osoro maintains that the golden boot award is no longer a lofty ambition after he moved clear in the FKF Premier League top scorers chart with three matches left to play.

“I feel good; I’m in the best shape of the season. The team is creating chances, and I’m doing my job as a striker finishing them. I believe I can win the Golden Boot with the help of my teammates," Osoro told Citizen Digital.

“My team's ambitions, of course, come before individual awards. My main goal is to help the team win their remaining games. If the team plays well and creates more goal-scoring chances, then the Golden Boot will come,” he added.

Osoro’s late-season fine form has not only put him in a prime position to win the golden boot but has also hugely contributed to Talanta’s upturn in form, which has seen the side move out of relegation zone.

The Jackline Juma-coached side are placed 13th in the league standings on 35 points, seven clear from the danger zone

He has scored four goals in his last four games, including the brace against Tusker, and also netted in wins against Gor Mahia and KCB.
