    LONDON, May 24 (Reuters) - Following are the leading rankings for the
    Golden Shoe, awarded to the leading scorer in the European leagues,
    after the completion of the major leagues at the weekend.

    Thierry Henry is set to become the first Frenchman to win the Golden
    Shoe, and the first player from the English premier league to win the
    award since Kevin Phillips in 1999/2000.

    The final list will not be issued until mid-June when all the
    European domestic leagues have been completed. Player, Team Goals
    Value Total 1. Thierry Henry, Arsenal (England) 30 2 60 2. Ailton,

    Note: A player's league goals are multiplied depending on the "value"
    of their league.

    Only the leading five countries in the UEFA rankings are given a
    multiple value of 2.
