Here are top 5 goal scorers among players who are still active in major top-tier leagues.
CRISTIANO RONALDO: 259
in 381 games for 3 teams. 29 years old. 68% scoring efficiency.
nationality: Portugal. current team: Real Madrid
ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC: 244
in 424 games for 7 teams. 32 years old. 58% scoring efficiency.
nationality: Sweden. current team: Paris Saint-Germain
LIONEL MESSI: 236
in 268 games for 1 team. 26 years old. 88% scoring efficiency (!).
nationality: Argentina. current team: Barcelona
FRANCESCO TOTTI: 233
in 552 games for 1 team. 37 years old. 42% scoring efficiency.
nationality: Italy. current team: Roma
SAMUEL ETO'O: 232
in 475 games for 8 teams. 33 years old. 49% scoring efficiency.
nationality: Cameroon. current team: Chelsea
While they would top this table, I count neither Thierry Henry nor Raul Gonzalez, who play in lower leagues (USA and Qatar) and no longer play internationally. Interestingly, no Brazilians make the list: they just haven't had top strikers since Rivaldo, and that was a while ago.
