Cristiano Ronaldo targets 1,000 goals and Nations League title with Portugal

Cristiano Ronaldo Portugal national team Jorge Jesus 1,000 career goals UEFA Nations League

Cristiano Ronaldo, the 41-year-old captain of the Portugal national team, has announced his intention to continue playing for his country while pursuing two major career milestones: reaching 1,000 career goals and winning the UEFA Nations League.

Speaking ahead of Portugal's Nations League campaign under new head coach Jorge Jesus, Ronaldo addressed his future and the criticism he faces. He stated that he is willing to accept a bench role or reduced playing time if it serves the team, but emphasized that he will depart the national team as soon as he is no longer considered a valuable asset. He noted, “Whenever they say they don’t want me in the national team, I will be the first one to go.”

Coach Jorge Jesus, who previously managed Ronaldo at Al Nassr, has confirmed that the veteran striker remains a central figure and a symbol of Portuguese football. Jesus indicated that Ronaldo is expected to start in the upcoming match against Wales. While some domestic critics have called for a generational rebuild ahead of the 2030 World Cup, Ronaldo remains focused on his immediate goals and contributing to the team's success in the current competition.
