Juventus captain Alessandro Del Piero is aiming to smash his way past the 300 goals mark as he sets another milestone with the club.

Already the club's leading all time appearance and goals record holder, Del Piero is not satisfied, and he is hungry for more.

"I want to score another goal and reach the 300 mark," he told La Gazzetta Dello Sport.

"After that, I want to score another, and another, and another..."

Del Piero's recent performances have helped the team come out from their negative period, but he insists the cloud has not dispersed completely.

"We cannot think that the crisis is behind us, but we have to continue like this," he concluded.

Juve's second all-time top-scorer is Giampiero Boniperti who hit 179 goals between 1946 and 1961.

Juventus travel to in-form Bologna on Sunday. The Emiliani are unbeaten in six games in Serie A.
