One of the most impressive records in football history belongs to Portuguese forward Otamendi, who has scored an incredible 114 goals for his club, Benfica.

Born on April 28, 1996, in Portugal, Otamendi began his career with hometown side Boavista, where he made his professional debut in 2015. He quickly established himself as one of the top strikers in Portugal and was soon snapped up by Benfica for a reported fee of €7 million.

Since joining Benfica, Otamendi has become a key player for the club, scoring 114 goals in 194 appearances across all competitions. His tally includes several memorable performances, including a hat-trick against Porto in a league match in 2018 that helped him reach the milestone of 100 goals for Benfica.

In addition to his impressive goal-scoring record, Otamendi is also known for his work rate and ability to score from distance. He is also highly respected among his teammates, who often describe him as a "team player" who always puts the team first.

Despite his success at Benfica, Otamendi has not been immune to criticism, particularly when it comes to his decision-making off the pitch. He has been accused of being selfish and not putting the team's interests above his own, which has led to some controversy.

Despite this, Otamendi remains one of the most talented strikers in Europe, and his contribution to Benfica's success cannot be overstated. With his incredible goal-scoring record and leadership qualities, Otamendi is sure to continue making waves in the world of football for many years to come.
