If he does 60 average goals/season over his next 4 year contract, that will leave him with 287 to go. He would need 48.7 average over his next 6 years to hit 901 (assuming Ovi finishes at 900).

I think there is a high likelihood that, barring any significant time missed, he will look to take the record in 10-11 years.
High likelihood he average 50 goals a year for the next decade ????

It is very very hard to score 50 goals . Let alone for the next decade as an average - don’t forget age and injuries happen.

I think over the next 13 years it isn’t inconceivable he scores at a 40 goals pace and challenges those guys in his age 39-40 seasons , but thinking he’ll be scoring 530 goals over his next 10 years starting at his age is almost unthinkable
