Ancelotti Predicts Ronaldo Will Score 1,000 Goals

Brazil national team head coach Carlo Ancelotti has shared his thoughts on Cristiano Ronaldo’s ambition to score 1,000 goals during his career. The Italian coach previously worked with the Portuguese forward during their time at Real Madrid.

Currently, the 40-year-old footballer plays for Al-Nassr and has so far scored 953 goals. "He will definitely score 1,000 goals.

I have no doubt he will achieve this milestone. Recently, in Italy, I was asked about Luka Modric, and I mentioned that even at the age of 40, he can shine at Milan.
