Thai League 1 top scorers of all time: Brazilian goal hunters dominate; Where does Dangda rank?

Teerasil Dangda is widely recognized as a living legend of Thai football. His prowess on the international stage, particularly in the ASEAN Cup where he stands as the all-time leading scorer, is undisputed. 

However, a startling reality emerges when looking at the domestic records. Despite being one of the most frequent starters in the league's history, the 37-year-old veteran currently finds himself outside the top five of the all-time greats. This gap highlights the sheer dominance of foreign imports who have raised the bar to unprecedented levels. Who are these icons that have overshadowed Southeast Asia’s finest striker? 

In this exclusive report, Nowgoalpro provides a definitive list of the Thai League 1 top scorers, alongside an updated look at the current 2025/26 Golden Boot race to see if the historical dominance of certain nations continues today.

Exploring the historical Thai League 1 top scorers

The history of Thai football is a tale of Brazilian flair and clinical efficiency. Occupying the 10th spot is Renan Marques, a reliable Brazilian center-forward who notched 71 goals across four different clubs. Just ahead of him at 9th is the rising star Supachai Chaided. Representing Buriram United, Supachai has recorded 77 goals. He is a rare domestic talent currently active, having already secured multiple league titles with the "Thunder Castle." 

In 8th place, John Baggio, the diminutive attacking midfielder from Madagascar, has enchanted fans with 78 goals. 7th place belongs to the "Macedonian Magician" Mario Gjurovski, who scored 79 goals while playing for Muangthong United and Bangkok United, winning the league title in 2012 with an undefeated record.

The competition becomes even more intense as we enter the top six. Teerasil Dangda holds the 6th position with 99 goals. Having played for three clubs, including his iconic stint at Muangthong United where he won four league titles, he remains the highest-ranked Thai player. 5th place is held by Cleiton Silva, the first foreigner to reach the 100-goal milestone in Thailand, finishing his stint with 102 goals. 

Leandro Assumpção follows in 4th with 105 goals across seven clubs, proving his longevity. The podium begins with Dragan Boskovic and Diogo Luis Santo, tied at 118 goals. Diogo is perhaps the most decorated, winning the Golden Boot in 2015 and 2018 while leading Buriram to a historic treble. 

Finally, the undisputed king is Heberty Fernandes. With 159 goals across four clubs, Heberty transitioned from a second striker to a pure goal machine, winning the Golden Boot in 2014 and becoming the only player to surpass the 150-goal mark before moving to the Malaysian league.
