#3 Kylian Mbappe - 135 goals*
The only player on our list still playing for PSG is young sensation Kylian Mbappe, dubbed the heir to Pele by none other than the Brazilian icon himself.
Mbappe has been the top scorer in three consecutive Ligue 1 seasons now. In just 175 appearances across all competitions, he has managed to score a staggering total of 135 goals for PSG. (as of August 31, 2021)
Mbappe is just 22-year-old and has achieved so much at individual and team levels that one can only imagine what he could achieve in the years ahead as he reaches his prime.
Mbappe possesses incredible pace and his close control when dribbling at speed makes him an incredibly difficult player to defend against. He has extended his stay at the Parc des Princes after much speculation and that will only help him add even more goals to his already impressive tally.
#2 Zlatan Ibrahimovic - 156 goals
Though PSG now boasts world-class talents like Messi, Neymar and Mbappe, none can match the charisma of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The big Swede spent four seasons with the Ligue 1 giants and enjoyed a highly prolific spell, scoring a stunning total of 156 goals in just 180 outings across all competitions.
He is one of just three active footballers to have scored 500 club goals, alongside Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and also holds the distinction of having scored a top-flight goal across four decades.
Though he is one of the most decorated players of all time with 31 trophies to his name, the UEFA Champions League title and trophies with his national side have always eluded him.
He became PSG's top-scorer in 2015 and could've retained that honor if not for his former strike partner, who was equally prolific and competent in front of goal.
#1 Edinson Cavani - 200 goals
Edinson Cavani scoops the title of being the all-time top scorer in PSG history as the only player to ever reach a double century when it comes to goal count. El Matador (a nickname he earned in Italy thanks to his composure in front of goal) has enjoyed a fruitful spell with each club he has been with. He is also the second-highest goalscorer for Uruguay's national team behind only Luis Suarez.
He rose to prominence after Ibrahimovic left the club and in the first season as the sole No.9 for the club, he scored 35 league goals and was named the Ligue 1 Player of the Year.
He is often said to be a perfect modern striker, possessing the ability to score goals with his feet and head, and he could also seamlessly combine with his PSG teammates to create goalscoring opportunities.
Like Ibrahimovic, he has joined Manchester United but a glut of attacking talent at the Premier League club might hamper him from showcasing his finishing skills as he is mostly used as a second-half substitute.
