Football's 5 greatest goalscoring goalkeepers

4) Rene Higuita (41 goals)

Arguably the most eccentric goalkeeper of all-time, Higuita was aptly named ‘El Loco’ (The Madman). Known to have a penchant for the extraordinary, Higuita often strode upfield in an effort to help with his side’s forward play, finishing his career with an impressive tally of 42 goals.

However, despite his goalscoring exploits, he’s still best known for this piece of magic (not to mention madness) against England, now famously called the ‘Scorpion Kick’, only adding more credence to the name ‘El Loco’.
