Barcelona defender Gerard Pique heaped praise on Lionel Messi after he broke Gerd Muller's goalscoring record.

Pique was one of a number of Barca players to hail Messi and urged the Catalan club to cherish the three-time Ballon d'Or winner while they can.

"Leo is supernatural, he has no limits and we always have to remember everything that he's given us. We have to enjoy him every single minute that we have him now," the Spain international was quoted as saying by El Mundo Deportivo.

Barca midfielder Sergio Busquets added of Messi: "He is the best in the world and I'm very happy he's broken that record and I hope he gets more."
