Scoring 1000 goals will be the most unrealistic expectation from fans on Messi. Messi so far has scored 629 goals from 777 appearances. He is just 31 years old.

Pele scored 1000+ goals, and there are many claims that the facts are not accurate.

Messi has five to six years left in his career. If he continues to perform the way he is performing now, he may reach the magical mark of 1000 goals by the end of his career. He is not prone to serious injury because of his game style, and that is a huge bonus for him.

Messi in 2012 scored a record 91 goals. All he needs is two good years like 2012. Messi has defied logic to become arguably football's greatest player of all time.

He has started his 2018-19 with a bang. He is right on course towards the 1000 goal mark.

Can he pull off this miraculous feat?
