Italy 
The Bayern Munich forward has become one of the most prolific strikers in world football, but despite being 31, only won his first cap for his country in 2004 following an impressive season for Palermo in Serie B.
He then confirmed his status as a top marksman by hitting 20 goals in Serie A, helping Palmermo to a UEFA Cup spot.
A big-money move to Fiorentina followed, as did the goalscoring, and Toni became the first player in almost 40 years to score more than 30 goals in a season in Italy's top flight.
His second year in Florence was hampered by injury, but he still managed 16 goals and that was enough to convince German giants Bayern to splash out around 11million euros for his signature.
And he has become as big a hit there as he was in Italy, scoring 39 goals in all competitions as Bayern regained the Bundesliga title.
Toni has averaged almost a goal every two games for Italy and will start Euro 2008 as one of the favourites to be top scorer in the tournament as he is a threat in the air, as Scotland found to their cost in qualifying, as much as he is on the ground.
Although a goal poacher, Toni is equally adept at holding the ball up and linking up with his team-mates and he should comfortably add to the two goals he netted for Italy during their World Cup winning campaign.
