Serie A once had the Seven Sisters, but now the top spot among the big five leagues has changed hands. The Premier League has its Big 6 clubs, all with enormous financial power. Here is an interesting set of data from foreign media SCORE90 comparing the all-time top scorers and current top scorers of the Premier League Big 6, along with their historical rankings.

Liverpool’s all-time top scorers: Ian Rush, 339 goals, ranked first… Salah, 250 goals, ranked third.

Manchester United’s all-time top scorers: Rooney, 253 goals, ranked first… Bruno Fernandes, 103 goals, ranked nineteenth.

Arsenal’s all-time top scorers: Henry, 228 goals, ranked first… Saka, 77 goals, ranked twenty-seventh.

Manchester City’s all-time top scorers: Aguero, 260 goals, ranked first; Haaland, 149 goals, ranked second.

Chelsea’s all-time top scorers: Lampard, 211 goals, ranked first… Palmer, 46 goals, ranked thirty-third.

Tottenham’s all-time top scorers: Kane, 280 goals, ranked first… Richarlison, 28 goals, ranked sixty-sixth.

Based on the above data, the only player likely to break the predecessors’ records is Haaland. As long as the “Machine” stays healthy, he will eventually catch up to Aguero. Haaland’s current contract with Manchester City runs until 2034.
