Real Madrid all-time top scorers: Cristiano Ronaldo atop, Benzema in pursuit


 Real Madrid are arguably the greatest European team of all-time. 

They have won the most league titles in Spain and have a love affair with the Champions League, which they've won a record 14 times - twice as much as the next best team.

It's thus little surprise that some of the greatest players to have ever graced a football pitch put on the famous Real Madrid jersey during their careers, including some incredible goal scorers.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the club's greatest goal scorer ever, scoring 451 goals in 438 appearances. He is the only player in Los Blancos history to have scored goals at a rate of more than one goal per game and he won four Champions Leagues as well as four Ballons d'Or during his time at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Karim Benzema is the only current Real Madrid player who makes the list for the highest goal scorers in club history. With 329 goals in 616 games, the Frenchman is the second-highest goal scorer, winning the Pichichi once and the Champions League five times. He scored 44 goals in 46 appearances in the 2021-22 season, which was his highest-scoring season ever.

Madrid's leading appearance maker of all time, Raul, sits in third place with 323 goals. He made his debut at the age of 17 and helped Real Madrid win three Champions Leagues.
