Strikers, also known as centre forwards, forwards, and attackers, are the players on a team in association football in the row nearest to the opposing team's goal, who are therefore principally responsible for scoring goals. Modern player formations include between one and three strikers; two is most common.
Becuase they score more goals than other players, strikers generally are the best-known and most expensive players on their teams.
