All totals are for the senior team across all official competitions (league, domestic cups, European and world competitions); friendlies and the Copa Catalunya are excluded — which is why Paulino Alcántara appears here on his official 143 rather than the ~369 often quoted with friendlies. Figures verified through June 2026. Sources: Wikipedia club player and records tables, cross-checked with BDFutbol, Goal.com and the clubs' official all-time rankings.
