The Gate Methodusalixe! In the top 5 European leagues, some players show their scoring qualities even at a relatively high age. Soccerdata.de shows the oldest scorers from Bundesliga, La Liga, Ligue 1, Premier League and Serie A.
“The League of Talents” is how French Ligue 1 advertises in the trailer before each live broadcast – it can be seen in Germany on the DAZN streaming service and also a TV tip from our editors.
If we look now at the ranking of the oldest scorers in the top 5 European leagues, it is difficult to identify the French elite class as a pure talent pool. Rather than the old club of top European football, go after the older scorers.
38 years and 319 days
The world championship in France foresees it with José Fonte of the 2021 French champion, OSC Lille.
The Portuguese central defender is the captain of coach Paulo Fonseca’s team (49) and, with 38 plus x, is also the oldest player in the squad.
Fonte, aged 38, 319 days, shot himself atop Methodusalixe in Europe on November 6, 2022 in a 1-1 draw at Stade Rennes. No player was bigger than Fonte to score in this season’s top 5 UEFA leagues.
700 Bulls
Even the English Premier League must admit defeat in this category, regardless of its seemingly eternal scoring qualities. Obviously, this means Manchester United’s Cristiano Ronaldo. At 37 years and 246 days, CR7 is the second-oldest scorer in this season’s top five European leagues. The Portuguese’s last goal was against Everton on 9 October, his 700th goal in club football!
Ronaldo is framed by two French Ligue 1 players: AC Ajaccio’s Fonte and Riad Nouri. The Frenchman, who also has an Algerian passport, scored 4-2 against Racing Strasbourg last Saturday at the tender age of 37 years and 151 days. Like Fonte, it was the first goal of the season for the right fielder.
With all due respect: The Bundesliga can’t keep up with these aged presidents. FC Augsburg’s Daniel Caligiuri scored 2-3 in Cologne on 16 October 2022. He was 34 years and nine months old at the time and was two months ahead of Schalke’s Simon Terodde and ahead of BVB’s Anthony Modeste, who was four months old. less.
