The Argentine's strike against Valencia took him to another milestone for the Catalan club in only his 471st competitive match in Blaugrana colours
Lionel Messi has reached 400 goals for Barcelona following his strike in the Liga clash at home to Valencia on Saturday.
The Argentine attacker struck in the dying seconds to claim his latest landmark, which he has achieved in only 471 competitive matches for the Blaugrana.
Messi, still only 27, netted his first for Barca in 2005 against Albacete at Camp Nou and has since gone on to break most of the game's goalscoring records.
All-time top scorer for Barca, the Rosario-born forward also leads the goal charts in the Champions League and La Liga, while he is closing in on Gabriel Batistuta's 56 strikes for Argentina.
His goal against Valencia means he now has 46 goals in 46 appearances in all competitions this term, while he has closed to within three of Cristiano Ronaldo in the race for the Pichichi prize
