Lionel Messi passed Gerd Müller when it comes to goals for a single club, and now, only Pelé stands in front of him. With two goals in Barcelona’s 3-4 loss against Betis, Messi first tied and then went one goal ahead of the German legend’s record with Bayern Munich, which stood at 565. With 566 goals to his name, Messi needs 77 to draw level with Pelé’s record, which is 643.
Pelé boasts of having scored more than one thousand goals, although those include friendly matches, and depending on the count, can also include matches with the New York Cosmos or the Brazilian national team.
