Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar: Who has the best goals-per-game ratio for Barcelona?

And arguably the greatest of them all, Lionel Messi, spent the majority of his glittering career dazzling supporters at Camp Nou.

For 17 glorious years, the diminutive Argentine played football from a different planet while wearing Barcelona‘s famous jersey.

In 776 games across all competitions, Messi rippled the back of the an astonishing 670 times, the most goals ever scored by a player for one single club in the history of the beautiful game.

It’s a record that will almost certainly remain intact for decades to come.

Messi is Barcelona’s leading goalscorer by over 400 goals. The closest player to him according to Transfermarkt is Cesar Rodriguez, who has 226 to his name.

Madness, right?

In fact, the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner has to make do with a fourth-place finish.
