Gordon became Hearts' record European appearance holder last week but already has his sights set on more maroon milestones.
Craig Gordon knows the newly-expanded European competitions mean his latest record breaking feat at Hearts might not last long.
He said: “I was just talking about that very thing, that if we do continue to progress then there is no reason that somebody couldn't get there fairly quickly. At the moment a record might not last too long, you never know in football but hopefully that is a sign of things to come and there's many players coming up with the aspirations to get to that and beyond.
Should Hearts get through the play-off they could face Premier League giants Manchester United and Tottenham or some of the cream of the continent including Roma or Ajax in the next stage. “I think I've still got the Celtic record for a goalkeeper as well, I got 60-odd appearances there. Between the two I've managed to play in Europe quite a lot. That's what you want to play, you want to play at the end of the league to get that opportunity and hopefully I can do that for a little while yet.”
