# List of footballers in England by number of league goals

The following is a list of footballers who have scored at least 200 domestic league goals in English league football. This includes the appearances and goals of both present and former players in the Premier League and The Football League.
Due to the close connections between English and Scottish football, several players have played for clubs in England and in the Scottish Football League and its successors and amassed over 200 goals across the two systems, including David McLean (over 160 goals in both), Joe Baker (over 140 in both), Neil Martin (over 110 in both) and Kenny Dalglish (over 110 in both).
Players who came up just short of the 200 mark include Chris Chilton, Peter Doherty, Gary Lineker, Jack Smith, Freddie Steele and Andrew Wilson.
Horace Barnes, Tony Brown and Bobby Charlton are the only midfielders to have scored over 200 goals in English football.
