Ranking the 9 Top Goal-Scorers in Club World Cup History
The Club World Cup fails to carry the prestige of the Champions League or Premier League, despite it technically deciding the best team in the world. Before a new format in 2025, the competition sees every continental winner go head-to-head in a series of knockout matches to decide the winner; typically the European side wins.
During Real Madrid’s Champions League dominance as one of the most successful teams in the world, they also shone at the Club World Cup, with Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the greatest attacking trios of all time, treating it like a training match with ease.
They’ve not been the only players to love life at the Club World Cup though. We have decided to highlight the top scorers in Club World Cup history. The top nine stretches across Asia, the Middle East, Mexico and Europe, epitomising the diversity at the tournament. There won’t be any surprises about who is top.
