Since the 2000/01 season of the UEFA Champions League, the competition has seen numerous top scorers throughout its history. Kylian Mbappé is the latest player to join this elite group, finishing as the leading scorer of the 2025/26 campaign with 15 goals. He shares this achievement with Harry Kane, who scored 8 goals each in the 2023/24 and 2024/25 seasons.
Mbwappé's 15-goal haul and his two appearances in the knockout rounds also set a new record for that stage of the competition. The dominance of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, who accounted for the top-scorer title in 12 of the 13 seasons between 2007/08 and 2019/20, has been broken by a new generation of players. Robert Lewandowski ended this dominance in the 2019/20 season with 15 goals, continuing the legacy set by Ronaldo and Messi.
The full list of Champions League top scorers from 2000/01 to 2025/26 includes various players from different clubs and nationalities, each contributing to the rich history of this prestigious tournament.
