Zapping Eleven World Eleven Request – Manchester City: the year or never to win the Champions League
Since 2004 Lionel Messi has never stopped breaking records, each more impressive than the last. As the Spanish Championship continues to resume after around three months of stoppage linked to the coronavirus pandemic, the Pulga has a new record in its sights. Already the author of 6 Pichichi trophies (trophy for the best goalscorer in the Spanish championship), Messi is with Telmo Zarra, the player who has been voted the most successful goalscorer in Liga. This year he is still at the top of the ranking with 19 achievements and could well become the only record holder before the legend of Atletic Bilbao if he manages to keep up the pace in front of his rivals.

Leo Messi does not only have Telmo Zarra in his sights, King Pelé could well be dethroned by the best goalscorer in the history of Barça. At the club since 2004, Messi has spent his entire career in Barcelona and has scored 627 goals in all competitions, an astounding figure. But this figure could be even more in a few games, because Pelé is with 647 goals, the player having scored the most goals for a single club. With only 20 difference achievements, Messi will most certainly beat this record in the coming weeks to be definitely alone in the world.
