Hey! Wrexham AFC fans, get ready to be blown away. Your superstar Paul Mullin is making waves with his goalscoring exploits for the last three seasons. After winning two back-to-back Golden Boots, he missed out on another in the recently concluded season. But despite losing the Golden Boot, the Reds’ talisman has eclipsed Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

The Liverpool-born forward has been the mainstay of the Red Dragons for the last two seasons. Mullin carried the goalscoring responsibilities for Ryan Reynolds’ team, helping them get promotion to EFL League Two. But what is the stat that sees Super Mullin in 6th position ahead of Ronaldo and Messi?

Wrexham talisman eclipses Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi

Paul Mullin dropped down two leagues to play for the ambitious project under the ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. It wasn’t an easy task, though, to lure the League Two Golden Boot winner. But the Reds’ owners did it and got the benefits of signing the Liverpool-born forward. 

Mullin scored 108 goals in the last three seasons in all competitions. In the 2020-21 season, Mullin notched 34 goals for Cambridge United, helping them get promotion to League One. The next season saw the Liverpool Academy product scoring 28 goals for the Reds. However, the 2022-23 season was his best, as Mullin netted 46 goals to guide Wrexham to League Two and the National League title.

His 108 goals earned him 6th spot, eclipsing Cristiano Ronaldo’s 100 and Lionel Messi’s 102 goals over the same period. Moreover, the top 20 list includes soccer stars from the top divisions except for Mullin. Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah also finished below Mullin with 100 goals. But who all finished ahead of Super Mullin?

FC Barcelona forward tops the list

Robert Lewandowski had scintillating three seasons. The Polish captain won Golden Boots in all three seasons, two in Bundesliga and one in La Liga. He topped the list with 148 goals for the last three seasons. He narrowly beat Kylian Mbappe to the top position, as the French and PSG forward scored 147 goals in the previous three seasons.

Manchester City superstar Erling Haaland followed the two with 143 goals. English superstar Harry Kane and former Real Madrid talisman Karim Benzema finished in 4th and 5th positions, respectively, with 115 goals. It is a rare occasion as the GOATs Messi and Ronaldo miss out on the top five, as they had dismal previous two seasons. The fans would hope that they could bounce back in the upcoming season. However, Mullin has placed himself in good company.
