Samuel Eto'o is another prolific goalscorer of the 21st century. After failing to break into the Real Madrid first team, the Cameroonian was snapped up by Barcelona following a four-season stint with Mallorca. And Eto'o didn't look back from there.

In five seasons with the club, the now-retired player scored 130 goals, including 108 strikes in La Liga, as Pep Guardiola's men became the first Spanish team to win the continental treble.

Eto'o then landed at Inter Milan, where he became the first player to win consecutive continental trebles with two different clubs. After 33 Serie A goals in two seasons, the Cameroonian was on the move again.

He went on to play for Chelsea and Everton in the Premier League a few years later, but struggled with the physical nature of the competition before retiring in 2018.


#2 Cristiano Ronaldo

One of the greatest players to have graced the game, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored goals and won titles galore during an illustrious near two-decade-long career.

Ronaldo first burst onto the scene at Manchester United, scoring over 100 goals in six seasons, 84 of them in the Premier League, before moving to Real Madrid following a world-record transfer in the summer of 2009.

The five-time Ballon d'Or and Champions League winner is the all-time top-scorer in Real Madrid and Champions League history. He is also one of only two players to score 300 La Liga goals.

After a highly successful nine-season stint with the Merengues, Ronaldo had a decent three-season stint at Juventus. The two-time La Liga winner added two Serie A titles to his burgeoning trophy cabinet.

Last season, Juventus failed to win Serie A for the first time in a decade despite Ronaldo winning his first Capocannoniere award and becoming the first player to top score in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A. In the process, he also became the first Juventus player to score 100 goals in their first three seasons at the club.

Ronaldo has made a sensational return to Manchester United this summer after being strongly linked with an exit from Juve. He'll hope to replicate his stellar goalscoring exploits at his old stomping ground and help deliver their first Premier League title since 2013.


#1 Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the best strikers to have graced the game, scoring over 500 goals during an illustrious career at eight different clubs in six different countries.

The Sweden international is still going strong at the age of 39. He won league titles in Spain (1), Italy (4), France (4) and Netherlands (2). Ibrahimovic narrowly missed out on one in England, finishing second in the Premier League with Manchester United.

Now at AC Milan, Ibrahimovic is three strikes away from 150 Serie A goals. He has scored over 100 Ligue 1 goals (all with PSG), 16 in the La Liga in his lone season at Barcelona and 17 in the Premier League with Manchester United.
