The 30-year-old Iran international pushed his way into the ‘battle’ for the title of best ‘top scorer’ in the championship by scoring three times more than Gonçalo Ramos, of Benfica, and five more than João Mário, also of the new champions subjects, and then the Spanish Fran Navarro, of Gil Vicente.
Taremi succeeds Uruguayan Darwin Núñez, who was top scorer in 2021/22 with 26 goals for Benfica, before moving to Liverpool.
Pedro Gonçalves, from Sporting, top scorer in 2020/21, is fifth with 15 goals.
The Iranian is the 16th ‘blue and white’ player to win this ‘scepter’ and the first after the ‘tri’ of the Colombian Jackson Martínez, winner in 2012/13, 2013/14 and 2014/15.
Before that, the best “shooters” for the “dragons” were the also “repeating” Jardel (four times) and Fernando Gomes (six), as well as Brazilians Hulk, Pena and Azumir, Argentinian Lisandro Lopez, South African Benny McCarthy, the Yugoslavian Kordnya and the Portuguese Domingos Paciência, Jacques, Araújo, Correia Dias, Costuras and Pinga.
