Cristiano Ronaldo Aims for 1,000 Career Goals but Embraces the Present as He Nears 40

Posted : 13 November 2024

Cristiano Ronaldo has expressed his desire to reach the 1,000-goal milestone in his career but acknowledges that time may not be on his side as he nears 40. With 908 goals to his name, Ronaldo remains the top scorer in football history. While receiving the Quinas de Platina award from Portugal's Football Federation, Ronaldo reflected on his impressive journey and mentioned the challenges of setting long-term goals at this stage of his career. He emphasized the importance of living in the present and appreciating his achievements, even if he doesn't ultimately reach 1,000 goals.

 

Ronaldo, currently playing for Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, has a contract that runs until June 2025. However, he has not yet revealed whether he intends to continue his playing career beyond that, especially with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner recently participated in his record sixth European Championship with Portugal, adding another significant milestone to his illustrious career. Despite his age, Ronaldo remains a pivotal figure for both club and country, showcasing his dedication and passion for the game.

 

The Portuguese superstar has an exceptional international record, scoring 133 goals in 216 appearances since making his national team debut in 2003. Reflecting on his journey, Ronaldo recalled his initial dream of earning his first international cap at 18. As he surpassed each milestone, from 50 caps to over 200, his ambitions grew, demonstrating his relentless pursuit of excellence. Winning Euro 2016 remains a highlight, and representing Portugal continues to be a source of immense pride for the veteran forward.

 

Ronaldo also shared his disappointment with some players who show a lack of commitment to the national team. He stressed that despite all the trophies he has won, nothing compares to the honor of playing for Portugal. As he nears the end of his career, Ronaldo is focused on making the most of every moment on the field, cherishing the opportunity to continue representing his country at the highest level.
