Speaking before his 900th career goal, the five-time Ballon d’Or set his sights on reaching 1,000 goals.
“Soon I will do 900 and, after, I will beat 1,000. I want to reach 1,000 goals,” he said on his new YouTube channel. “If I don’t have injuries, this, for me, is the most important. I want that.
“It’s the best marker I can have in football. There will be one difference: all of my goals have videos, so I can prove that.”
