Some of the best Newcastle United goalscorers:
Alan Shearer: Although Alan Shearer's prime years were in the late 1990s, he continued to be a dominant goalscorer for Newcastle United in the early 2000s. He retired from professional football after the 2005-2006 season. During this period, he added to his impressive goal tally for the club, becoming their all-time leading goalscorer.
Demba Ba: Senegalese striker Demba Ba joined Newcastle United in 2011 and made an immediate impact. In the 2011-2012 season, he scored 16 Premier League goals in 34 appearances, helping the club secure a fifth-place finish. Ba's clinical finishing and ability to find the back of the net made him a fan favorite during his time with the Magpies.
Papiss Cissé: Like Demba Ba, Papiss Cissé arrived at Newcastle United from the Bundesliga in 2012. He made an instant impact with his spectacular goals, including memorable long-range strikes. Cissé's goal-scoring exploits helped Newcastle finish in the top half of the Premier League in the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons.
Obafemi Martins: Nigerian striker Obafemi Martins played for Newcastle United from 2006 to 2009. His blistering pace and acrobatic goals made him a thrilling player to watch. Martins scored 28 goals in 88 appearances for the Magpies.
Shola Ameobi: Shola Ameobi, a product of Newcastle's youth academy, spent most of his career at the club. While not as prolific as some other strikers on this list, Ameobi was a loyal servant to the Magpies, scoring crucial goals during his time from the early 2000s until he left the club in 2014.
Loïc Remy: French forward Loïc Remy had a successful loan spell at Newcastle United during the 2013-2014 season. Despite being with the club for just one season, Remy made a significant impact, scoring 14 Premier League goals in 26 appearances.
