Leo Messi remains, and will likely remain for a long time, Barcelona's all-time top scorer in El Clasico. Of the current squad, Raphinha holds that title, though with just three goals—all scored this season—he's still far from the top 10.

For Barcelona fans, the most iconic version of the club is the one that defined an era under Pep Guardiola. Names like Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta, Carles Puyol and Gerard Pique shine brightly in the club's history. And, of course, above all, there is Leo Messi.

The Argentina star is the top scorer for the team in El Clasico and, judging by the current squad's numbers, will hold that title for many more years.

In fact, looking at the current roster under Hansi Flick, Raphinha is the team's top scorer in Clasicos, with only three goals to his name. All of them came this season—two in the Super Cup final and one more in a league encounter.

Therefore, the top 10 all-time scorers in Barcelona's Clasico history are still a distant target for the Brazilian. He would need to score at least three more to make an appearance in that prestigious list.


Here's the ranking of Barcelona's top scorers in El Clasico:

Quini (6)

Rexach (6)

Zaldua (6)

Evaristo (6)

Villaverde (6)

Jose Mari Bakero (6)
