The Premier League has produced many great penalty takers over the years, but scoring regularly from the spot is about more than confidence alone; it requires composure, technique, and consistency.
While Premier League record goalscorer Alan Shearer remains the player with the most penalties scored in the competition’s history, converting 56 of the 67 he took, he does not rank among the most clinical when success rate is considered.
Other prolific scorers such as Frank Lampard, Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane, Steven Gerrard, and Mark Noble also feature high on the list of penalties scored, yet fall short of the top 10 when judged by conversion percentage.
According to data compiled by Opta and reported by BBC Sport on Tuesday, ex- Man City midfielder Yaya Touré and Fulham striker Raúl Jiménez sit at the summit of Premier League penalty efficiency among players who have taken at least 10 spot-kicks. Both boast a perfect 100 per cent record, scoring all 11 penalties they attempted.
According to Opta, these are the best Premier League penalty takers from players to have taken 10 or more Premier League penalties.
Yaya Toure – 100% scored (11/11)
Raul Jimenez – 100% scored (11/11)
Matt le Tissier – 96.2% scored (25/26)
Danny Murphy – 94.7% scored (18/19)
Callum Wilson – 94.1% scored (16/17)
James Beattie – 94.1% scored (16/17)
Julian Dicks – 93.8% scored (15/16)
Cole Palmer – 92.9% scored (13/14)
Bukayo Saka – 92.3% scored (12/13)
Thierry Henry – 92% scored (23/25)
