Pichichi Trophy

Template:EngvarB Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox award In Spanish football, the Pichichi Trophy (Template:Langx) is awarded by the sports newspaper Marca to the top goalscorer of each La Liga season. Named after the Athletic Bilbao striker Rafael "Pichichi" Moreno, the trophy has been awarded annually since the 1952–53 season.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> All top scorers who preceded the award's creation were retroactively named Pichichi winners by Marca. Since the 2014–15 season, the top scorer of the women's Liga F is also awarded the Pichichi Trophy.<ref>Sonia Bermúdez and Adriana Martín shared the women's Pichichi Trophy Template:Webarchive. Marca (in Spanish), 8 February 2016.</ref>

The Pichichi is not officially recognised by the league's governing body, the Liga Nacional de Fútbol Profesional. As the award is based on MarcaTemplate:'s subjective criteria, its data may differ from the official match delegate reports. For the top scorers in the Spanish football league according to La Liga data, see List of La Liga top scorers. The player with the record number of wins is Lionel Messi with eight, all with Barcelona.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
