3 top players who became record goal scorers for both club and country

#2 Lionel Messi

The Barcelona superstar has drawn a lot of talk on whether or not he is the greatest footballer of all time. While many agree to this, others say that his lack of a major trophy with the Argentine national team makes the likes of Pele and Diego Maradona go ahead of him.

Messi however is in a class of his own when compared to footballers around him. He has been known for his ruthlessness in front of goal. He has multiple scoring records to his name that may never be replicated again.

He is Argentina's top scorer with 65 goals in 128 caps. His Barcelona statistics are even more impressive. He tops the all-time charts with 552 goals in 637 appearances.
