No one doubts how many goals Ronald has scored during his career.
Since 2003, the Portuguese who collect them have won the Sporting jersey five times in Lisbon, scoring 118 goals for Manchester United, scoring up to 450 goals for Real Madrid and scoring 85 times for Juventus Turin.
Ronaldo scored another 102 goals for the Portuguese national team, bringing his total number of goals during his career to 760.
But the controversy stems from the number of goals from other legendary footballers, says the BBC.
According to the Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation (RSSSF), the first place in the list of the most productive footballers of all time does not belong to C. Ronaldo, but to the aforementioned Czech J. Bican, who has 805 goals in his bill.
According to the RSSSF, Brazilian Romario is in second place (772 goals) and his compatriot Pelé is in third place with 767 accurate shots.

Bican, who died in 2001, played for five clubs and the Austrian and Czechoslovak national teams during his career, and his career spanned from 1931 to 1955.
However, the statistics provided by the RSSSF include 27 shots of Bican’s 805 goals as a double player for the Vienna Rapid Club. Bican is believed to have scored several more goals in unofficial international matches.
After discounting them, J. Bican only has 759 goals left, that is, one less than C. Ronaldo.
Most productive footballers of all time (unofficial data)
- Cristiano Ronaldo: 760 goals;
- Josef Bican: 759 goals;
- Pelé: 757 goals;
- Romario – 745 goals;
- Lionel Messi – 719 goals.
And Romario and Pele? The number of its targets is also the subject of considerable debate. Legendary Brazilians themselves claim to have scored more than a thousand goals in their careers.
Argentine Lionel Messi recently outpointed Pelé by one club, which Brazil scored 643 for Santos de São Paulo, but immediately after that, the Brazilian club said that the goals in the friendly match are also counted, so Pelé with a white and black t-shirt in total. .has scored 1091 goals.
Even the legendary Brazilian, who celebrated his 80th anniversary last year, has an inscription that says “Pelé is the most productive footballer of all time with 1,283 goals.”
But minus the unofficial and friendly matches that Pelé played for the army team in 1959, the Brazilian forward is left with 757 goals he scored while playing for the Santos and Cosmos clubs of New York and the Brazilian national team.
Romario celebrated his 1,000th goal in 2007, but that number also included accurate shots in youth teams, friendly matches, and demo matches.

Brazil is more likely to have 745 goals scored in South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Although different sources present a different number of goals from Romario.
Therefore, there is no single answer to the question of whether Ronaldo has become the most productive footballer of all time. Maybe? Probably?
It’s clear, at least, that Ronald’s goals were accurately counted. Like L. Messi, who is 7 goals with 719 accurate shots from his eternal opponent.
So at least we’ll know which of these two soccer legends still playing will have scored the most goals after their careers.
