Ronaldo targets winning Nations League, reaching 1000 goals

n n

Portugal and Al Nassr striker Cristiano Ronaldo has identified two major targets for the next phase of his career: helping Portugal win the UEFA Nations League and reaching 1,000 career goals.

n

The Portugal captain made his ambitions clear as he continues to pursue further success at both international and individual level.

n

In a post by Fabrizio Romano on X on Wednesday, he was quoted as saying, “The missions now are two: winning the Nations League and reaching 1,000 career goals,” Ronaldo said.

n

Ronaldo has already enjoyed a remarkable career with Portugal, winning major international honours and becoming one of the most prolific goalscorers in football history.

n

The forward’s pursuit of 1,000 career goals would add another significant milestone to an already record-filled career.

n

At international level, Ronaldo remains focused on Portugal’s quest for further Nations League success, with the competition providing another opportunity for him to add to his list of achievements with the national team.

n

With the two objectives now clearly stated, Ronaldo’s next challenge will be to continue scoring while helping Portugal compete for another major international trophy.

n

Portugal head coach Jorge Jesus confirmed that the veteran forward remains an important part of his plans.

n

Jesus highlighted Ronaldo’s significance to the Portuguese national team, describing him as a symbol of the country’s football.

n

“Cristiano Ronaldo will start for Portugal tomorrow against Wales, Jorge Jesus confirms. “He’s our symbol”, Jesus announced.
