Arsenal have housed some of the best goalscorers in the history of English football.

Talents such as Thierry Henry and Alexis Sanchez🌞 captivated the imaginations of supporters in the early 2000s and midway through the 2010s – tormenting opposition defences with their immense ability.

With the help of such talented attackers, the Gunners can boast 13 league titles, a recordℱ 14 FA Cups, 17 FA Community Shields and many other pieces of silverware.

Aside from Henry and Sanchez, let’s take a look at the other eight stars who make up the top ten goalscorers in Premier League history for Arsenal.

Alexandre Lacazette

Alexandre Lacazette🤪 finds himself tenth on Arsenal’s list of record Premier League goalscorers.

൲The Frenchman netted 54 goals in 158 Premier League appearances following a £46.5m move from Lyon back in July 2017 – with one strike against Southampton in December 2021 securing him the Premier League Goal of the Month award.

✃Lacazette – the fifth most expensive player in Arsenal’s history💯 – also provided 25 assists in the Premier League.

Alexis Sanchez

The aforementioned Sanchez – who Mikel Arteta describes as “chaos”𒊎 – sits six strikes above Lacazette with 60 goals in 122 Premier League appearances for Arsenal.

♏After arriving in a £35m move from Barcelona back in July 2014, the Chile international took north London by storm, but was sadly unable to win the Premier League title his efforts deserved.

Robert Pires

Robert Pires🃏 finds himself eighth on the list of Arsenal’s record Premier League goalscorers.

♐The Frenchman bagged 62 goals in 189 Premier League appearances for the Gunners, helping Arsenal win two Premier League titles and two FA Cups.

Theo Walcott

Theo Walcott🌃 made quite the impact at Arsenal after joining from Southampton at the age of just 16.

🦩The Englishman racked up 270 Premier League appearances in total for the Gunners, scoring 65 goals and providing 42 assists as he won the FA Cup on three occasions.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyangꦬ boasts a superb goalscoring ratio in the Premier League era for Arsenal.

♛After arriving in a £56m move from Borussia Dortmund back in January 2018, the Gabon international quickly racked up 68 goals in 128 Premier League games for Arsenal – roughly averaging a goal every two games.

Olivier Giroud

Oliver Giroud can also boast a fantastic record for Arsenal.

✤Despite being a much maligned figure in the 2015/16 campaign – missing several golden chances as Leicester eventually won the Premier League title – the Frenchman left N5 with 73 goals in 180 Premier League appearances.

Dennis Bergkamp

Dennis Bergkamp𓆏 is undoubtedly one of the greatest players to grace these shores.

🌜The Dutchman oozed class, netting 87 goals in 315 Premier League games for Arsenal, helping the Gunners lift three Premier League titles.

Robin van Persie

Robin van Persie🐽 is not exactly the most popular man at Arsenal after leaving for rivals Manchester United in August 2012 – but his record remains undeniably impressive.

👍The man born in Rotterdam netted 96 goals in 194 Premier League appearances for the north Londoners, with 30 of those coming in the 2011/12 campaign alone.

Interestingly, ꦡWalcott said Van Persie was a better finisher than Henry at Arsenal.

Ian Wright

It took Ian Wright🃏 until the age of 34 to secure his first Premier League medal – but boy did he earn it.

🉐The Londoner scored 104 goals in 191 appearances for Arsenal following a move from Crystal Palace in 1991 – winning two FA Cups and three League Cups to go with his Premier League title.

Thierry Henry

Henry may stand alone as the𝄹 best Premier League player in history – let alone the record goalscorer for Arsenal.
