Saudi National Team Scorers in World Cup History
The stars Sami Al-Jaber and Salem Al-Dawsari top the list of the Saudi national team's top scorers in the history of the World Cup finals, each having scored three goals wearing the green jersey in the global tournament.
The 2026 World Cup presents an exceptional opportunity for Salem Al-Dawsari to claim the record, as he needs just one goal to become the sole all-time top scorer for the Saudi national team in the World Cup.
Sami Al-Jaber scored his three goals during his participation in the 1994, 1998, and 2006 editions, while Salem Al-Dawsari scored his goals in the 2018 and 2022 editions, matching the achievement of the Saudi football legend.
Fouad Anwar ranks second on the list of all-time top scorers for the Saudi national team in the World Cup, with two goals scored during the team's participation in the 1994 World Cup in the United States.
The importance of Al-Dosari's goals is not limited to Saudi statistics alone, as any goal he scores in the 2026 World Cup gives him the opportunity to become the top Arab scorer in the history of the global tournament.
The captain of the Saudi national team currently shares the top spot for Arab goal scorers in the World Cup with Sami Al-Jaber, Tunisian Wahbi Khazri, and Moroccan Youssef En-Nesyri, each having scored three goals.
Al-Dosari has a clear advantage in the race to break the Arab record, especially with some competitors retiring and others not being included in their national teams participating in the current edition.
The captain of the Green Falcons also aspires to achieve an additional milestone by scoring in three different editions of the World Cup, a feat that would grant him an exceptional status in the history of Saudi and Arab football.
Salem Al-Dawsari is considered one of the standout stars of the national team in recent years, having left an unforgettable mark in the 2022 World Cup by scoring the historic goal against Argentina.
As the 2026 World Cup approaches, attention is turning to the leader of the Green Falcons, who is on the verge of writing a new chapter in the record of Saudi national team scorers and enhancing his status among Arab World Cup legends.
