Juan Soto said on Thursday he was looking to establish a Major League Baseball dynasty with the New York Mets after the 26-year-old signed a record-breaking 15-year, $765-million contract with the team.

Soto's lofty ambitions are in line with those of Mets owner Steve Cohen, who has sought to bring a winning culture to the club since acquiring it four years ago.

"The Mets are a great organization," Soto said during his introductory news conference at Citi Field in Queens.
