Goals are the essence of soccer. It is very common to wonder who are the top scorers in the history of this sport because there are many players who have scored goals since its creation. The fan jumps and vibrates with every goal scored by his team and it is necessary to know the most complete statistics regarding the goal.
You may know some of the names we are going to mention as they are included in other rankings of best players in history or even as the best strikers in the world today.
At the age of 40, the Swedish player can say he is in the top 10 all-time scorers in soccer history. The current AC Milan player has had physical problems that have sidelined the former PSG player from the pitch. However, when Zlatan is in shape he scores.
The Polish player recently surpassed the historic Eusebio. The Bayern Munich player has shown impressive goal-scoring consistency with the German team, not for nothing did he win The Best award in 2021.
The former Northern Irish player is the eighth highest goal scorer in the history of the world but still holds the record of being the top scorer in the NIFL Premiership. He has more goals than matches: during his career, he scored 647 goals in 614 matches.
The Torpedo Müller is a reference when talking about great scorers. The German was active between 1962 and 1983 and in that time he played 793 official matches scoring 735 goals.
The greatest Hungarian player of all time and one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of soccer occupies sixth place on the list. Puskás was active between 1943 and 1966 and surpassed the 700-goal mark in 718 matches.
In the fifth position, we find Leo Messi. The Argentinean has 759 goals so far, but he still has years and goals ahead of him to improve that mark. How far will he be able to go?
Pelé, the man who until recently held the record for the most goals scored by a single club, is third in this ranking. The former Brazilian player reached 767 goals in 812 official matches.
Fourth place goes to one of the greatest strikers in the history of soccer: Romario. The former PSV, Flamengo, and Barcelona player played 961 official matches in which he scored 772 goals.
The Portuguese is close to overtaking the first place, he only needs two goals to become the top scorer in the history of soccer, but in 2022 Cristiano has not yet been able to score.
Josef Bican, the legendary player of the 1930s and 1940s, retired in 1956. It has taken more than 60 years for someone to threaten to equal or surpass his scoring record, something that seemed like absolute madness.
He went from making Ronaldinho disappear on the pitch to disappearing himself from soccer
