Gila targets Capocannoniere crown
Thursday 4 December, 2008

Fiorentina marksman Alberto Gilardino has set his heart on topping the Serie A scorers' chart this season.

The former Milan man has reinvented himself at the Stadio Artemio Franchi and has nine Serie A goals to his name this season.

Genoa hitman Diego Milito currently leads the Capocannoniere list with 11 goals.

“I want to win this season's Capocannoniere award,” Gilardino told Tuttosport.

“I have many objectives this term and one of those is finishing as the best striker in the League.

“Scoring 20 goals without any penalties would be good, but if I have to take a spot-kick to win the Golden Boot then I will.

“My best goal so far was the one against Juventus on the first day of the season.

“There's lots of competition. Milito is very good and Marco Di Vaio has found his confidence. Then there's Alessandro Del Piero, Francesco Totti and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.”
