Europa League records: Players

Most Europa League goals

Radamel Falcao took goalscoring to the next level as he hit a remarkable 30 goals in just 31 Europa League appearances. Twenty-nine of them came in just two seasons in 2010/11 and 2011/12, when the dynamic Colombian inspired Porto and Atlético de Madrid to titles. His returns of 17 and 12 goals respectively are the best and second-best ever season tallies and he scored a record three hat-tricks in the process. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finally eclipsed that 30-goal mark in 2023/24, ending the campaign on 34.

Most Europa League appearances

Rui Patrício holds the outright record for most appearances in the Europa League, playing 69 games across nine seasons in the competition with Sporting CP, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Roma. The Portuguese goalkeeper overtook Austrian defender Aleksandar Dragović in the 2022/23 knockout stage. Both appeared in the very first Europa League matchday back in 2009, Dragović lining up for hometown club Austria Wien aged 18 and Rui Patrício turning out for Sporting – although Dries Mertens, now of Galatasaray, has already overtaken Dragović and is now closing in fast on Rui Patrício.
