List of women footballers with 300 or more goals

In women's association football competitions, 44 players have scored 300 or more goals over the course of their career in both club and international football, according to research by Independent Football Data (IFD), an organisation ran independently by an English man.[citation needed] FIFA, the international governing body of football, has never released a list detailing the highest women's goalscorers and does not keep official records.

As part of the article List of footballers with 500 or more goals, two women had entered the list; Patrizia Panico with 863 goals in 790 games and Anita Pádár with 661 goals in 447 games. However, with no source to back up this claim, it was removed from the article.
