Cristiano Ronaldo scores 938 goals and seeks the historic milestone of 1,000 goals

Portuguese legend could achieve the unprecedented feat before 2027
Cristiano Ronaldo has reached 938 official career goals for club and country, according to Goal Brasil and The Guardian. The Portuguese superstar, now 40 years old and playing for Al-Nassr, needs only 62 more goals to reach the historic 1,000-goal milestone, something no player has ever achieved in modern football.
Targeting 1,000 Before 2027
Despite his age, Ronaldo continues to perform at an elite level. His current contract with Al-Nassr runs until 2027, giving him three more years to accomplish the record. Sources close to the player say he is determined to reach 1,000 goals before retirement, cementing his place in football history.
Consistency in Saudi Arabia
Ronaldo’s numbers prove his enduring quality. Since joining Al-Nassr, he has scored 99 goals in 111 matches, maintaining a prolific strike rate. In the 2023/24 season alone, he registered 54 goals for club and country, according to TNT Sports Brasil. If he keeps this pace, CR7 could reach the milestone in less than two years.
Ahead of Messi and Legends
With 938 goals, Ronaldo is already the highest-scoring player of all time, ahead of football icons such as Pelé, Puskás, Bican, and rival Lionel Messi, who stands at 875 official goals. This gap reinforces CR7’s dominance in the all-time scoring charts.
Every Game Counts
From now on, each appearance for Al-Nassr or the Portuguese national team will bring Ronaldo closer to his remaining 62 goals. Achieving 1,000 would not only be a statistical milestone but also a testament to his longevity, discipline, and relentless hunger to compete at the highest level.
