Messi chasing Ronaldo's goal record?

With the new contract signed with Inter Miami, Messi not only commits to the team but also has the opportunity to conquer the 1000-goal milestone.

Messi pursues dream of 1000 goals.

On October 24, Messi signed a contract with Inter Miami until December 2028, opening up the prospect of playing football until the age of 41. Under the new contract, Messi has a clause allowing him to leave the team early, but he promised Inter Miami's board, including businessmen David Beckham and Jorge Mas, that he would stay for three years if he maintained his form and good feeling when playing.

In response, Beckham and Mas pledged to build the strongest possible squad to support Messi, help him enjoy the game and continue to shine. The Messi fan community is excitedly discussing this prospect. Many believe that with Messi's ambition, his dream of reaching 1,000 goals is possible.

To date, Messi has scored 889 goals in his career (excluding goals in friendly matches), with 40 goals in the 2025 season alone. If he maintains his impressive form of an average of 35 goals per season for the next 3 years, he will reach 994 goals - just 6 goals away from the 1000-goal mark. This is a big challenge, but with Messi's talent and determination, nothing is impossible.

Currently, Ronaldo has 949 goals in his career, and reaching the 1000 goal milestone is considered a great source of pride for the Portuguese superstar. However, if Messi equals or surpasses his proud scoring milestone, Ronaldo will certainly not be satisfied.
