Ex-Argentina international Gabriel Batistuta has revealed his frustration at the prospect of losing his goal-scoring record to Barcelona star Leo Messi.
The former Fiorentina player currently holds the record with 54 goals, just four ahead of compatriot Messi.
He told Libero: "Messi will beat me, that's a fact, and I'm surprised that it's not been done already.
"It will bother me to tell the truth, because being [Argentina's] top goalscorer filled me with pride and I've enjoyed that for a long time.
"The consolation is that I'm losing this record to a player from another level, and I've already beaten one player, Diego Maradona, who was from another planet.
"I hope Messi's goals serve as a platform for Argentina to win something."
