Golden Boot Race Heats Up: Titus Chansa Takes the Lead with 11 Goals
With just four matchdays remaining in the 2024/25 MTN Super League, the race for the Golden Boot Award is boiling over. Leading the pack is Power Dynamos striker Titus Chansa, who converted a penalty in Week 30 against NAPSA Stars to take his tally to 11 goals this season.
But the competition is fierce, with three players—Godfrey Binga, Idris Mbombo, and Simon Mulenga—breathing down his neck on 10 goals each. With key fixtures remaining for all top scorers, the next few weeks will be critical in determining who takes home Zambia’s most coveted individual football award.
Titus Chansa – 11 Goals (Power Dynamos)
Having joined Power Dynamos during the midseason transfer window from Mutondo Stars, Chansa made an immediate impact in the title race. He had already scored 9 goals for Mutondo before his move, and since arriving in Kitwe, he has added two more, including a crucial penalty against NAPSA Stars in Week 30.
Chansa’s chances of securing the Golden Boot are boosted by Power Dynamos’ strong form and attacking style. However, with crucial fixtures ahead against Nkwazi, Nkana, Green Eagles, and Nchanga Rangers, he’ll need to stay sharp to hold off his challengers.
“It’s not just about the goals, it’s about helping the team achieve our objectives,” Chansa told reporters. “But if the Golden Boot comes along the way, I’ll be grateful.”
Godfrey Binga – 10 Goals (NAPSA Stars)
Once a key figure in Kabwe Warriors’ early-season success, Godfrey Binga has struggled to replicate that form at NAPSA Stars since his transfer. Of his 10 goals, 9 came in a Warriors shirt, with his last strike coming on January 19 against Nkwazi.
Binga’s dip in form mirrors NAPSA’s mid-table position. Now ninth on the log, the Lusaka-based side still has matches against FC MUZA, Kabwe Warriors, Lumwana Radiants, and Mutondo Stars, which could give Binga the opportunity to reignite his scoring touch and make a late push for the boot.
Idris Mbombo – 10 Goals (Nkana FC)
Idris Mbombo is storming into the Golden Boot conversation after a slow start to the season. The Nkana talisman grabbed a brace in a dramatic 2-2 draw against ZANACO in Week 30, taking his season tally to 10 goals, with 4 of those coming in his last five matches.
Nkana’s push for a top-two finish and CAF qualification gives Mbombo extra motivation. The Red Devils still have to face Green Buffaloes, Power Dynamos, FC MUZA, and Kabwe Warriors, offering him plenty of chances to surpass Chansa.
Simon Mulenga – 10 Goals (Green Eagles)
Simon Mulenga was one of the league’s hottest players in the first half of the season, firing 9 goals to help Green Eagles into the top six. But 2025 has seen a decline in his output, with only one goal scored in the second round of the campaign.
Despite the dip, Mulenga remains in the hunt, with Eagles set to take on Zanaco, Green Buffaloes, Power Dynamos, and FC MUZA. A return to form could make him a dark horse in the race.
Other Contenders
Lambert Araina – 9 Goals (Zanaco FC)
Zanaco’s forward has been consistent throughout the season and remains a threat despite the team’s struggles near the relegation zone. With winnable fixtures ahead, Araina is one to watch.
Innocent Kashita – 9 Goals (Nkwazi FC)
The Nkwazi striker has quietly kept pace and could cause an upset if he finishes strong. Matches against Power Dynamos and other top sides offer him the spotlight to shine.
Conclusion
The Golden Boot race in the MTN Super League is far from over. While Titus Chansa holds the edge with 11 goals, challengers like Godfrey Binga, Idris Mbombo, and Simon Mulenga are still in close pursuit. With key matches lined up, consistency, composure, and a little bit of luck will be the deciding factors.
As the season draws to a thrilling conclusion, fans will be glued to every goal scored—not just for points, but for glory.
