One of the most underrated superstars in the football world right now, Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema also belongs on this list, thanks to his incredible efforts in front of goal in Europe's elite tournament during the past few years.

The ex-French International rarely gets the praise that he deserves but the numbers do not lie. Benzema will go down as one of the most potent goalscorers the Champions League has witnessed, courtesy of his amazing goalscoring exploits in the European tournament.

With his fantastic 59 goals in 110 Champions League appearances, the attacker has put himself among the greatest goalscorers in the history of the competition and considering the fact that he is still active in the tournament, Benzema still has the chance to make that tally even more impressive.
