Manchester United ace Wayne Rooney has his sights set on Sir Bobby Charlton's goal scoring record.
The 26-year-old, who has 175 goals to his name, regards Charlton's mark of 249 as the ultimate target.
"Of course," he told Inside United. "It would be an unbelievable feeling if I could get his record.
"I'm still a long way away but hopefully, one day, I will be able to do it.
"They (Viollet and Best) are obviously club legends and to be in touching distance of their goal tally is something I'm really proud of and hopefully I will overtake them soon."
