Cristiano Ronaldo pledged that would not retire until scoring the 1,000th goal of his professional career, insisting that he “wants to keep going” wherever that feverish desire may take him.
The unrelenting goalscorer has found the net 956 times for club and country. Despite turning 41 this coming February, the rate of Ronaldo’s output remains dizzying: 2025 proved to be the 14th calendar year of his career which brought a return of at least 40 goals.
