Barcelona star Lionel Messi has no intention of resting on his laurels despite becoming the youngster player in the club's history to score 100 goals.

Messi, who is the reigning World and European player of the year, reached the landmark with a brace during Saturday's 4-0 rout of Sevilla.

"The truth is that even after all the important things that have happened to me, I live a quiet, normal life and remain eager to do more things," said the 22-year-old Argentina international.

"I am very grateful for what I have achieved."

Coach Pep Guardiola: "It's outrageous to have done what he has at his age.

"It only depends on him to break all possible records. He has some very, very high numbers.

"What we like most is that his ambition has no limit. I feel that he wants more. He is a wonderful example to the future generations."
