Following Cristiano Ronaldo’s record-equalling strike earlier in the week, a list of the top goalscorers in every position has been released.
Ronaldo’s goal for Juventus against Sassuolo put him level on points with Josef Bican on 759 career goals.
The Portuguese forward failed to break the record on Wednesday against Genoa but he’s on course to do it sooner rather than later.
But who are the other players who seem to have been born to find the net?
Goalkeeper – Rogerio Ceni (131 goals in 1990 – 2015)
Right-back – Graham Alexander (107 goals from 1988 – 2012)
The former Scottish international was a real threat throughout his career for clubs including Scunthorpe United, Luton Town, Preston North End, Burnley and Preston North End.
Centre-back – Ronald Koeman (253 goals from 1980 – 1997)
Known now for his managerial prowess, current Barcelona boss, Ronald Koeman also had a taste for goal in his playing career at a number of clubs including Ajax, PSV and Barcelona.
Left-back – Paul Breitner (113 goals from 1970 – 1983)
Paul Breitner scored a hatful of goals during his time at Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.
Central midfield – Frank Lampard (274 goals from 1995 – 2016)
Lampard is one of the Premier League’s greatest ever scorers, knocking them in from every angle as a midfielder for West Ham, Chelsea and briefly for Man City as well.
Winger – Cristiano Ronaldo (759 goals from 2002 – present)
Cristiano Ronaldo is a born goalscorer and has proved this from his time at Sporting Lisbon, Manchester United Real Madrid and Juventus.
Striker – Josef Bican (759 goals from 1931 – 1955)
The joint top scorer in history was a beast in front of goal in his day, particularly for Slavia Prague.
