Paris Saint-Germain has established itself as the number one provider of goalscorers since the last World Cup held in Qatar. That trend continues this year across the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Indeed, six different PSG players have found the back of the net since the start of this World Cup, the latest being Moroccan star Achraf Hakimi against Haiti. Before him, Bradley Barcola (France) scored versus Senegal, Ousmane Dembélé (France) broke through against Iraq, and Ibrahim Mbaye (Senegal) netted against Les Bleus.

And that's not all—Portuguese internationals João Neves and Nuno Mendes also scored, against DR Congo and Uzbekistan respectively. No other club has produced more different goalscorers than the European champions, whose players feature for the world’s elite national teams.

Another impressive stat: since Qatar 2022, PSG players have racked up 36 goals—more than Real Madrid (22), FC Barcelona (21), Manchester United (19), and Tottenham (18).

As double European champions, PSG keeps proving it’s the ultimate supplier for national teams—and the 2026 World Cup only cements that reputation.

Most goals by club since Qatar 2022:

1. PSG: 36

2. Real Madrid: 22

3. Barça: 21

4. Manchester United: 19

5. Tottenham: 18
