Casillas could probably manage it as a goalkeeper but he may not even be at Madrid at that age. We'll see. Madrid aren't the sentimental type, even Raul was offloaded when he past his peak.
To put this into perspective, Giggs needs 3 more games to overtake Maldini's club record and Giggs would have reached that a couple of years sooner!
For a defender to reach 900 is quite extraordinary, but a midfielder who didn't even start out in central midfield it is quite something. You really have to play in the first team from 17 or 18 years old for your entire career to stand a chance. 20 years of consistency avoiding too many bad injuries.
To reach 1000 apps for United he will probably have to play until he is at least 41 i.e three and a half seasons or so. Can he do it?
I think it is a big ask, but if anyone can, it is this man.
Difference is Maldini won 5 European Cups and Giggs has only 2.
Casillas will definitely achieve a higher appearance total, 607 at 30. GK usually play until they're 40. Casillas is the best in the world by miles, Real would have to be retarded to sell, sack or replace Casillas.
Az amazing as it is, i think it will be beaten.Maybe someone like Casillas.
The way he's going, Giggs will probably outstay SAF. The guy is a machine.
