Quiz! Can you name the top 52 active Premier League goalscorers?

Wayne Rooney

No mystery about the man who tops the list of active scorers in the Premier League. Only Alan Shearer has scored more - and with 260, it’s a record unlikely to be broken any time soon.

However, for the purposes of this quiz Alan can – to copy the advice Diego Maradona gave to his old chum Pele – “go back to the museum”. Because all we’re interested in right now is active Premier League players. Sorry Alan. Sorry Thierry. Sorry Cristiano. Sorry Emile.
