(@centregoals) September 13, 2024 Although Ronaldo's most recent milestone marks yet another chapter in his legendary career, he has indicated a want for further successes before retiring. Before calling his career farewell, Portugal's national team coach, Roberto Martinez, and player Ruben Neves have both speculated that Ronaldo would score 1,000 goals.Ronaldo scored 450 goals during his tenure at Real Madrid, hence a good fraction of his 900 goals came there. His score for Manchester United is 145; for Portugal is 131; for Juventus, it is 101; for Al-Nassr it is 68; and for Sporting five. Given his goal scoring ability, CR7 never shied away from dominating the country he ever went in to play the sport. From ruling England with Manchester, to ruling Spain and the world with Real Madrid to enjoying his domination in Italy with Juventus, to now creating records at Al-Nassr. Apart from winning the 2023 Arab Club Champions Cup, Ronaldo has failed to grab official team medals with Al-Nassr despite his scoring ability. After Al-Hilal last year almost missed out on the Saudi Pro League championship, he wants to add to his trophy collection this season. Well, it is important to note that Al-Nassr has not made any significant changes to improve their squad for this season and is likely to solely depend on Cristiano Ronaldo. Al-Nassr will now face Al-Shorta on Monday, September 16, 2024, in the AFC Champions League Elite.
