2024 Women's U17 EURO top scorer: Alba Cerrato

Spain forward Alba Cerrato has been crowned top scorer at the 2024 UEFA European Women's Under-17 Championship with seven goals.

Cerrato struck twice in each of La Roja's matches against Portugal, Belgium and France, plus one more in the final victory over England. It left the Sevilla striker two clear of team-mate Celia Segura, scorer of two in the final.

France sensation Rachael Adedini, 14, was third after scoring a 16-minute hat-trick against Norway and the late winner versus Sweden, both times coming off the bench.

Cerrato also finished top scorer for the season having struck ten times in qualifying.
