Michel Platini
The FFF lists Michel Platini fifth with 41 France goals. Wikipedia lists 72 caps, a 0.57 average and a France career from 1976 to 1987. It also names him as the top scorer of a European Championship final tournament, with 9 goals at the 1984 UEFA European Championship in France. Wikipedia’s leading-scorers table, correct as of 25 September 2026, lists him as a midfielder with 41 goals, 72 caps and a 0.57 average, career 1976–1987. The caption on that page says he captained France to victory at UEFA Euro 1984.
