England top scorers: Who has made the list?
There are an array of stars who didn't make the top five list but the current star most likely to break into the top end is Arsenal's Beth Mead.
She is currently on 33 goals and if she continues her good fortunes in a white shirt she can challenge for the top spot. But who is in the top five scorers?
5. Fara Williams, 40 goals
Fara Williams is England all-time appearance holder for a men or women's player with 172 caps. In that time she scored 40 goals and left a lasting legacy on the team.
Her first goal came on her first start for England against Portugal in 2002. She scored from a free kick in the 3-0 win at Fratton Park.
Williams' most memorable goal came in the 2015 World Cup when she scored a penalty against Germany in the third place play-off. The goal gave the Lionesses their first-ever win over Germany and was the only goal in the 1-0 win to secure the bronze medal. Williams retired from England duty in 2019.
4. Karen Walker, 41 goals
Doncaster Rovers legend Karen Walker won 86 caps for England during her international career which spanned from 1988 to 2003.
Walker's first goal came with her first kick of the ball during her England debut in 1988 against Italy's B team. Her goalscoring efforts also aided the team to World Cup qualification in 1995.
Her experience and skill saw her become England captain in 2002, a title which remained hers until her retirement.
3. Kerry Davis, 43 goals
Kerry Davis won 90 caps for England and was the first black woman to play for her country.
She was a part of the 1984 European Championships where England lost to Sweden on penalties in the final. Davis did score her penalty in the shootout though.
Davis also represented England at a World Cup in 1995.
2. Kelly Smith, 46 goals
Kelly Smith is an Arsenal and England legend and for many of the current players she was the one they looked up to when they were coming through the ranks.
Smith made her debut in 1995 in a 1-1 draw with Italy and she was named player of the match. She represented England at three Euros and two World Cups.
She retired in 2015 and has since been put into the Hall of Fame.
1. Ellen White: 52 goals
Lionesses legend Ellen White, who is number 78 on FourFourTwo's all-time best players list, tops the charts for the women's top scorer with 52 goals in 113 appearances. Her last cap came in the Euro 2022 final where England beat Germany to lift the trophy at Wembley.

White retired in 2022 but is a household name and will forever be remembered in footballing lore.
