Mohamed Salah has been handed a boost in his quest to win the Premier League golden boot after his main rival for the accolade Son Heung-min insisted that he isn't focused on individual awards.
Liverpool star Salah currently leads the way in the Premier League scoring charts with 22 goals, but Son, who is in fantastic form, is just one goal behind.
Although Son would be delighted to win the golden boot, his primary focus at present is on helping Tottenham to secure a top four finish, with his side currently one point behind rivals Arsenal.

As reported by The Mirror, when asked about the golden boot, Son said: 'It's not important.
Son added that he would prefer for Tottenham to secure Champions League qualification than for him to win the golden boot.
He said: 'Yeah. 100 per cent. Obviously it's a good thing that you are racing to be top scorer, but I have said a few times that it is important to finish in the top four than anything else.'
