Cristiano Ronaldo continues to set new standards in world football, refusing to rest on his past achievements. As he nears his 40th birthday, his goals have become even more ambitious, and he remains dedicated to staying in top physical shape to play as many games as possible, both with Al Nassr and the Portugal national team. One of his primary targets is to score 1000 goals, a feat no other player in football history has officially reached, despite some unofficial estimates. Ronaldo is determined to make this record his own, and he's getting closer with each goal he scores.

As the 2024 season drew to a close, Cristiano Ronaldo was once again in top form, adding goals to his tally at an impressive rate. By the end of the year, he had scored 43 goals in total, both for Al Nassr and Portugal, bringing his career total to 916 goals in 1255 official matches. With an average of 0.73 goals per game, Ronaldo now holds the record for the most goals in the history of football worldwide.

Reaching 1000 Goals: How Many More to Go?

Cristiano Ronaldo now needs 84 more goals to hit the 1000-goal mark, a figure that seems almost impossible for most, but one that Ronaldo believes is well within his reach. While it’s hard to predict when he will achieve this milestone, several factors could influence the timing, including potential injuries, performance in international tournaments, and how many games he will play in each season.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made an estimation of how many games Ronaldo would need to reach 1000 goals, and the results are intriguing. According to Google Gemini, CR7 would need 115 more matches to reach this milestone.

The Math Behind the Calculation

To arrive at this estimate, AI divided the number of remaining goals (84) by Ronaldo’s goal-per-game average (0.73). This calculation shows that, based on his current performance, Ronaldo would need to play 115 more games to reach his goal of 1000.

Last season, Ronaldo played 51 matches (39 for Al Nassr and 12 for Portugal), so continuing at this rate, he would need just over two more years to reach the 1000-goal target. This means Ronaldo could achieve this milestone in early 2027, when he will be 42 years old. Will he make it?

  • Ronaldo has scored 916 goals in 1255 official matches, averaging 0.73 goals per game.
  • He needs 84 more goals to reach the historic 1000-goal milestone.
  • AI estimates that he will need 115 additional matches to achieve this goal.
  • If he continues at his current rate, Ronaldo could reach 1000 goals by early 2027, when he will be 42 years old.
