Since the Premier League's formation at the beginning of the 1992–93 season, a total of 34 players have scored 100 or more goals in the competition.[1] These players have been collectively referred to as the 100 Club.[2][3]

Alan Shearer was the first player to score 200 Premier League goals, and is the only player to score 100 goals for two clubs.

Alan Shearer holds the record for the most goals scored in the Premier League, with 260.[4] He became the first player to reach 100 goals in the competition, achieving the feat in just 124 games during the 1995–96 season.[5] Harry Kane is the second-fastest to reach 100, doing so in 141 games.[6] Michael Owen was the youngest player to score 100 goals at 23 years, 133 days.[7] Dwight Yorke was the first non-English player to reach 100 on 25 November 2000.[8] Didier Drogba became the first African to hit 100 goals on 10 March 2012.[9] On 16 April 2016, Sergio Agüero became the first South American to hit the 100 mark.[10] Mohamed Salah is the highest scoring foreign player. Son Heung-min became the most recent player to reach 100 on 8 April 2023, and the first Asian player to do so.[11] Six of the 34 players reached 100 without scoring a penalty: Sadio Mané, Peter Crouch, Emile Heskey, Les Ferdinand, Andy Cole,[12] and Ryan Giggs.[13][14][a]

This list excludes goals and players from the Football League First Division (1888–1992), showing only those who scored 100 goals in the Premier League after its inception in 1992.
