Who scored more goals in their career? Here, legends such as Pelé, Gerd Müller and Maradona go head to head with current stars such as Haaland, Mbappé and Kane. The range runs from Zinedine Zidane with just over 150 goals to Cristiano Ronaldo with almost 1,000. Tip: playmakers such as Zidane or Maradona usually sit well behind out-and-out centre-forwards.
Goals in official competitive matches for club and country are counted; friendlies are not. For players from earlier decades, figures sometimes differ considerably between sources because not every match is fully documented. The tallies of active players grow with every matchday – our values are as of October 2026.
All values are rounded approximations (as of October 2026) meant for fun, not as a factual source.
