Chelsea legend Frank Lampard has been named the highest-scoring midfielder of the 21st century.

Lampard, whose managerial stint at Stamford Bridge was called short in January with barely 18 months in charge of the West London club enjoyed an incredible playing career in the colours of the Blues.

The former England star crowned his illustrious career in 2013 with a record all-time top scorer on 261 goals.

He also enjoyed spells with West Ham United, Manchester City and New York City.

Behind Lampard is former England teammate and longtime Premier League rival Steven Gerrard.

Gerrard managed to net 206 goals in his career and he alongside Lampard are the only two to break the 200 goal barrier.

Borussia Dortmund stalwart Marco Reus places fourth and is the highest placed player who is currently active.

Meanwhile, the surprise exclusion from the list is France legend and Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane, whose commanding presence at the middle of the park, sent shivers down the spines of opponents.

Check out the entire top 20 below per Transfermarkt.

20. Ola Toivonen (117 goals in 397 games)

19. James Rodriguez (122 goals in 439 games)
