Who is the soccer player who scored the biggest number of goals in history? The question is hard to answer, as there are many polemics involved. The main one is the one of how many goals did Pele and Josef Bican scored. As there were no cameras and stats almost were not considered on those times, it is hard to say.

According to the majority of the people, Cristiano Ronaldo is now the top-scorer of all-time after his goals this Wednesday against Napoli on the Italian Supercup final. With that score, the Portuguese reached the 760 goals scoring during his entire career, what puts him one goal away from Bican, who scored 759.

But now the polemic exploded as many said that Bican has more goals scored and that even Pele has more than CR7. The Brazilian legend says that he has 1,283, a number that he has registered even on his social media accounts. After Cristiano overcoming his supposed record, Pele didn’t even salute him.

It was the said by the international press that Pele envy the fact of Cristiano overcoming his record and that was the reason why he made no mention his latest goals. It was something strange in the Brazilian, considering that every time that one of his records if overcome, he makes a post on his social media.
