160 goals

Heung-Min Son

Heung-Min Son joined a select band of five footballers when he struck a late winner against Luton on Saturday - five players who have scored 160-plus goals for Tottenham Hotspur.

Sonny's 160 came in 399 matches in all competitions since joining us in 2015. The first Asian to hit 100 goals in the Premier League, he's now in the competition's all-time top 25 on 118. FIFA Puskas Award winner for his stunner against Burnley in 2019, Sonny won the Golden Boot in 2021/22 and he's also second in our all-time European goalscoring list.

Here's who he's joined in our all-time top five...

174 goals

Martin Chivers

Few would would argue that 'Big Chiv' was the best striker in Europe in his pomp in the early 1970s. The man for the big occasion, Martin scored the goals to win the League Cup at Wembley in 1971 and the UEFA Cup in 1972. In total, he bagged 174 goals in 367 matches in all competitions for Spurs. Born in Southampton and signed in January, 1968 to accompany Jimmy Greaves and Alan Gilzean - the famous G Force - Martin hit 16 goals in 34 games before a serious knee injury sidelined him for the best part of a year, September 1968-August 1969. But when he returned, the goals and honours piled up.

Martin scored both goals as we beat Villa in the 1971 League Cup Final and he was unstoppable in 1971/72, culminating with two goals in the first leg of the UEFA Cup Final against Wolves, including a rocket from 35 yards. He scored 42 goals in all competitions that season, matching Jimmy Greaves' best total from 1962/63 and only finally bettered by Clive Allen's 49 in 1986/87. Another League Cup medal arrived in 1973 and Martin bagged another six in Europe on our way to the 1974 UEFA Cup Final, as we were beaten in the final by Feyenoord. Capped 12 times by England, Martin had spells at Servette, Norwich City and Brighton before retiring. He is still a regular at the Lane on matchdays where he is a popular member of our hospitality team.

208 goals

Bobby Smith

The classic old-fashioned centre-forward, the big Yorkshireman Bobby Smith led the line in Bill Nicholson's glory, glory years. Born in Lingdale, North Yorkshire, Bobby started out as an amateur with Chelsea in 1948 and turned full professional two years later. He made his senior debut at the age of 17 and moved to Spurs in December, 1955. A brave and powerful striker with a good deal of skill, he immediately helped us move away from the relegation zone and would go on to play a major role in the most glorious years in our history.

He was the leading goalscorer in our ‘Double' side with 33 League and Cup goals and scored in both our FA Cup Final triumphs of 1961 and 1962. He played a crucial role in our victorious European Cup Winners' Cup campaign of 1963. Bobby was also an England international, recording an impressive 13 goals in 15 appearances for his country. Bobby passed away in Enfield aged 77 in September, 2010.

266 goals

Jimmy Greaves

The maestro in front of goal, Greavsie's total of 266 goals in all competitions stood as the benchmark at Spurs for over 50 years. Born in East Ham, Jimmy was a goalscoring phenomenon from his early days. He signed professional forms at Chelsea aged 17 in 1957 and scored on his debut against us at White Hart Lane in August, 1957. Jimmy scored 132 goals in 169 appearances for the Blues before a transfer to Italy and AC Milan in 1960. His stay in Serie A was brief and after nine goals in 14 appearances, Bill Nicholson brought him back to England, joining our double-winning squad for a famous £99,999 fee in December, 1961.

He hit a hat-trick on his debut against Blackpool and went on to score 266 goals for us in 379 appearances (all competitions). He scored in the FA Cup Final as we defended the trophy in 1962, twice in the Cup Winners’ Cup Final against Atletico Madrid as we became the first British team to triumph in Europe in 1963 and lifted the FA Cup again in 1967. Greavsie also scored 44 goals in 57 games for England. In 1965, the year before England’s home World Cup, he contracted hepatitis, an illness that took him out of the game for three months. He recovered to make the England squad and played in the first three games of the tournament, but injury then ruled him out of the quarter-final. Geoff Hurst took over - and the rest is history. Jimmy retired at the end of the 1970/71 season and after winning a well-documented battle against alcoholism, won the hearts of the nation as a pundit and TV personality. After a serious stroke in 2015, Jimmy passed away in September, 2021, aged 81.

280 goals

Harry Kane

One of our own, Harry Kane rose from our Academy to establish himself as one of the best strikers in the world - taking the title of our all-time record goalscorer along the way. Born in Walthamstow, Harry joined our Academy in July, 2009, and signed professional forms a year later. He joined Leyton Orient on loan in January, 2011, where he made his Football League debut and scored five goals in 18 games. The following season, 2011/12, saw his initial emergence at Spurs with a debut against Hearts and six appearances in the Europa League, including his first goal in a victory at Shamrock Rovers. He then joined Millwall on loan in January, 2012, and scored nine goals in 27 games for the Lions. Handed a chance by Tim Sherwood at the end of 2013/14, Harry responded with three goals in three games, including his first Premier League goal against Sunderland, and a few months later, with Mauricio Pochettino now at the helm, he'd scored eight goals in cup competitions when he hit a late winner in the Premier League against Villa - and never looked back.

As we all know, milestone followed milestone in the next nine years - first Spurs player to hit 100 goals in the Premier League, our top Premier League goalscorer (213), top European goalscorer (76), three Golden Boots in the Premier League (and Playmaker, for most assists, in 2020/21) and finally, in February, 2023, he scored the winner against Manchester City to move onto 267 goals and past all-time great, Jimmy Greaves. Harry departed for Bayern Munich in 2023 with 280 goals in 435 appearances. Initially skipper in 2017, Harry was named permanent captain of England ahead of the 2018 World Cup - where he won the coveted Golden Boot for the tournament. He's now all-time top goalscorer for the Three Lions with 62 goals in his 89 caps.
