Cristiano Ronaldo's agent, Jorge Mendes, has said the Juventus superstar's "best is yet to come" after he scored his 700th career goal in Portugal's 2-1 loss to Ukraine on Monday.
The Bianconeri star converted from the penalty spot in Kiev to become just the sixth man to reach the mark in football history:

For Mendes, Ronaldo's numbers are proof that he is the greatest player in history, and he is convinced the 34-year-old can kick on from 700 goals to eclipse Pele's goalscoring record, per Tuttosport (h/t Football Italia):
"His numbers don't lie and light up the overwhelming way Cristiano Ronaldo shatters records, which elevate him to the category of best player in the history of football, with a big difference compared to the second [best] for all he achieved with the different clubs he represented, whether in England, Spain or now in Italy and also with the Portuguese national team.
