Lionel Messi: 2020 will see the greatest of all records fall

Over the past decade it has felt like Lionel Messi has been determined to shatter all records available to him. In terms of his goal scoring, many legendary names have already been picked off: from César Rodríguez and Torpedo Muller, to the likes of Johan Cruyff, Cristiano Ronaldo, Alfredo Di Stefano and Diego Maradona. But Pelé was still missing from his collection.


The best player in Brazil's history, and for many in the entire history of football, has treasured his record since 1974, one that seemed unattainable for any mortal, scoring 643 goals for the same club. In his case, it was achieved with Santos, the Brazilian club in which he performed so consistently for 17 years (from 1956 to 1974) while also representing his national team so proudly.
